Summary
The government is in a unique position to aid open source software -- and open source software has the potential to help the government. We will examine whether the United States government should actively aid open source. We will also see if the government would benefit by using OSS, whether or not they wish to actively contribute to it. We will examine case studies of other countries' experiences, both those who funded OSS (China) and those who use it (France and Germany).
