Objective:
In
light of security, financial, competition, and other considerations,
the debate over the government's use of so-called "open-source"
operating systems and commercial software has intensified
— but what are the facts? What are the risks? What are
the benefits? What is Congress saying about the open source/proprietary
software debate? What is the most prudent course for government
to take? Is there a "right" answer? Join
this seminar to find answers to these important questions.
