[Scale-planning] fyi - new Whitehouse policy requires 20 percent of code to be developed as open source

[Lan Dang]

Anyone have contacts with the DoD?  This is a pretty awesome FAQhttp://dodcio.defense.gov/Open-Source-Software-FAQ

Also, here is the NASA process to open source software.  (It's pretty cute.)

https://code.nasa.gov/#/guide

And here is NASA's GitHub:

I have reached out to a contact at OpenNASA to suggest such a talk.  She said to check back in late September as they appear to be in the middle of some reorganization.  

I know NASA has some stuff on GitHub now and I have recruited a speaker for one of the projects, OpenMCT, to submit to the Call for Papers.  Actually, I publicized it to the open source fans at work, so I hope more of them will submit this year.
