US Government v. Open Source: A History and Lessons Learned
Karl Fogel (Open Tech Strategies, LLC), Gunnar Hellekson (Red Hat)
Presentation: US Government v_ Open Source_ A History and Lessons Learned Presentation [ODP]
We've assembled the first comprehensive history of open source in the US government -- all the major events, publications, policy, and code releases we could collect. And it's mashable. From that data, we learn how the government adopts open source, how policies affects adoption, and how governments have most effectively encouraged their own open source use.
