It's been an interesting week so far. I asked a pointed
question at an "all-hands" meeting and as a result
wrote a little paper which highlights all the free and
open source software that we are using as well as the tools
that we have internally which would most likely flourish if
we were to release them with an open source license.
Suffice it to say, in the process of writing this paper I
noticed we have a LOT of free software that
we use
and quite a few useful bits that we could contribute back to
the community in terms of enhancements/bug fixes/orginal
software.
As things stand, I am unfortunately not able to publish
the paper nor share any details relating to it. :-( Suffice
it to say if the company does go for it, things could get
very interesting.
