Thanks! I was one of the primary authors of the original version. We did our best to identify misunderstandings and serious questions, and then answer them... exactly what a FAQ should do.
- LambdaComplex 4y agoNice to see you show up here. I definitely used some of the stuff on your website (and the DoD FAQ) as sources in at least one college paper.
- brendank310 4y agoI saw you present a version of this in probably 2016 or so at little security conference in DC (maybe platform security conference?). Anyhow your talk was a huge deal for defense contractors doing proposal work at the time (and since). In the DoD space a standard ask in a class of proposals is for having a commercialization plan for dual use stuff. Pushing that open source is commercial created a way for contractors to have their commercialization strategy for a proposal to be 'open source it'. Lots of open source development is out there as a result of your efforts and I can't imagine that was a fun bureaucratic battle to fight. Thank you seems small, but thank you and I owe you a beverage.
- dwheeler 4y agoA beverage sounds fun! I live in the DC area. If you're in the area, contact me at dwheeler@dwheeler.com and maybe we can find a way to "do lunch". :-)
