Is a Lack of Open Source hindering XBRL adoption? (by Diane Mueller, 2008-10-29)

Study created by CENATIC about the current state (April 2008) of open source tools in XBRL

The objective of this study (download here) is to analyze the feasibility of promoting XBRL in open source software that can be effectively integrated into the reporting tools used by local authorities under the cover of the possible creation of a XBRL community developers, bringing together users, regulators and technology providers, in order to develop components that provide XBRL functionality required.

Nowadays, there is no standard format for the companies in order to send their information, or an open-source software that facilitates its use in a simple and direct way. Therefore, XBRL –open, standard and royalty-free language-, is an electronic format to consider for implementation of IT within CENATIC objective of fostering the establishment of common standards in the use of open technologies to simplify their use and optimize resources.

CENATIC is the Spanish National Reference Centre for the Application of Information and Communication Technologies based on open source initiatives.www.cenatic.es
