“Earlier this month, DOD issued guidance that clarifies the use
of open-source software, or software whose code is made freely
available for others to use and modify. Although many of today’s
most popular software programs are open-source, such as the Linux
operating system and the Apache Web server, questions around
procurement persisted in the military services. The guidance is not
formally policy, but it offers clarifications on how to use open
source software.”
