Open-source software opens business doors for web-development companies

,----[ Quote ]
| The City of Vancouver has launched a program in 
| which much of its data is accessible to everyone. 
| Itâs also replacing many of its applications with 
| ones powered by OSS.
| 
| Appnovation initially worked solely with Drupal, 
| one of the most widely used OSS platforms â 
| particularly among media companies and non-profit 
| groups.

Should the White House Contribute to the Open Source Community?

,----[ Quote ]
| While this measure may not be an immediate
| cost-saver (5 different companies are
| involved in re-building and maintaining the
| White House web site), long-term costs
| should fall as government agencies are able
| to borrow from the greater Drupal community
| while incrementally improving on the
| websites code. But the question remains,
| will the Obama White House share some of the
| contributions itâs making to open source?

,----[ Quote ]
| Like many of you, I awoke Monday to read
| that whitehouse.gov was now running on open
| source products, including Drupal, Red Hat
| Linux, Apache web server, MySQL, and Apache
| Solr.
