| Both the FOSSology, which deals with the identification issues, and
| FOSSBazaar, which focuses on remediation concerns, are open projects, not
| commercial undertakings, so they do differ from Palamida and Black Duck in
| that way. These projects are also more of a group effort than just led by HP.

| Foundation, Novell, Olliance Group, OpenLogic and SourceForge are also
| pitching in time, talent or money to the effort.
