Open Source For America Government Initiaitve

by Mark on January 6, 2010

Open Source for America just posted a video on how open source can play a role in U.S. government on YouTube. Open Source for America(OSFA) is a non-profit organization with the following charter:

The mission of OSFA is to educate decision makers in the U.S. Federal government about the advantages of using free and open source software; to encourage the Federal agencies to give equal priority to procuring free and open source software in all of their procurement decisions; and generally provide an effective voice to the U.S. Federal government on behalf of the open source software community, private industry, academia, and other non-profits.
