Open Source Readiness – Training, Testing & Tools – Jim St. Clair

As we have outlined in our previous blogs, it’s been exciting to see how much work already exists in other collaborative efforts. Here within the Linux Foundation, we have our FINOS’ Open Source Readiness project, and the TODO group, which are joined by the OSPO Alliance, OSPO++, and a multitude of organizations with their own open source programs. As noted last year, there has been an ongoing evolution in the open source programs in various industries, so the time seems right to harmonize these ideas to help define and benchmark open source efforts. As we mentioned before, FINOS is committed to building on what these groups have developed to begin synthesizing a Body of Knowledge and Maturity Model for organizations to leverage for adopting and contributing to open source.

Enterprise open source development and involvement has its own set of challenges, but it becomes much easier if you have a clear plan to follow. If you're one of the growing list of companies that relies on open source software for their products and services, investing time and money into improving your open source practices can pay off immensely in the long run.
