       This way a high responsibility weighs on these institutions, as they
       need to ensure further development on systems, not easily accessible to
       the public, or not feasible for home use (e.g. \gls{wfs}). This situation

+      As the development of free and open-source software is driven by its
+      users and its contributors, its main goal should at some point be to
+      build a large and dedicated community, so that not only bugs in the
+      source code can get fixed, but also new features be developed.\\
+      Extending a software's functionality and improving its usability, such as
+      that of the \gls{ssr}, can therefore be seen as an important step towards
+      a more diverse user base and by that ensuring its further development.
