Content description

In a recent workshop, several Office of Innovation portfolio managers and colleagues shared common questions and doubts they see about Open Source. In an effort to better answer common questions that come up across cohorts, the FAQ makes a better catch-all category for answers that might not belong to a larger content of section yet.

The questions from the workshop are listed below:

  1. What are governance models for Open Source tech projects?
  2. What license do we use?
  3. How do you make money if you are Open Source?
  4. How can you be financially sustainable with an Open Source business model?
  5. Does this mean we will no longer be profitable?
  6. How do you handle privacy if everything is Open Source? Is it less secure?
  7. What is the benefit for them?
  8. Miscellaneous questions about patents and patent law
  9. How do you collaborate with other developers?
  10. What are DevOps / infrastructure deployment best practices for Open Source software?
  11. How do we decide what components should be Open Source?
  12. "So we'll become a non-profit? Who will own our company?"
  13. How do you safely and ethically create open data from an existing dataset?
