In September of 2015, the decision was made to move under The Linux Foundation. The Linux Foundation’s recognized excellence in Open Source governance and community and ecosystem development provided existing and prospective ODPi members with the confidence that the organization would continue to grow while operating openly, equitably and transparently.
Coinciding with the move to the Linux Foundation, several prominent industry players joined ODPi, bringing the total membership to 25 by the end of 2015.
