<p><strong><span style="text-align:center;display:block">Unprecedented contribution from the European Commission to the future internet</span></strong></p><p><em><span style="text-align:center;display:block">Fuel your project with NGI Zero Commons Fund : <br/>European funding for open source software and open models with social impact, open to all</span></em></p><p><strong>Paris, France - January 10, 2024</strong> – OW2, the international community for professional open source software, introduces <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://nlnet.nl/commonsfund/">NGI Zero Commons Fund</a></span> (NGI0 Commons), a new project from the Horizon Europe <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://www.ngi.eu/">Next Generation Internet</a></span> initiative.</p><p>Since 2018, NGI provides support through a cascade funding mechanism to projects from researchers, startups, SMEs, communities and independent developers, to help build the Internet that responds to people’s fundamental needs, including trust, security, and inclusion. NGI follows a bottom-up approach, supporting the builders directly by operating at the fine-grained scale of human talent, and opening the calls to individuals.</p><p>NGI0 Commons Fund is NGI’s vehicle for the next 3 years: it aims at funding the future of a European internet based on technology commons, through the development of shared building blocks that enable people to control their digital lives, respect their privacy, and create a fair, innovative economy. NGI0 vision is to help restore public ownership of the internet, making it healthier and more open – both as infrastructure and as ecosystem.</p><p>The program is steered by <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://nlnet.nl/">NLnet</a></span>, and includes many European foundations (<span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://www.ow2.org/">OW2</a></span> for the community, <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://fsfe.org/">FSFE</a></span>, <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://www.internetsociety.org/">the Internet Society</a></span> and the <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://apc.org/">Association for Progressive Communications</a></span> for free and neutral projects, <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://www.openforumeurope.org/">Open Forum Europe</a></span> for policy and society, the <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://fossi-foundation.org/">Free Silicon Foundation</a></span> for open hardware, <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://www.apell.info/">APELL</a></span> for the business world), as well as committed open source players (such as <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://nixos.org/">NixOS</a></span>, <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://tolerantnetworks.com/">Tolerant Networks</a></span>, <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://www.radicallyopensecurity.com/">Radically Open Security</a></span>, <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://commonscaretakers.com/">Commons Caretakers</a></span>, <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://techcultivation.org/">Center for the Cultivation of Technology</a></span>, and academics (<span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="https://www.hanuniversity.com/en/">HAN Arnhem University</a></span>).</p><p>The project will receive a grant of EUR 27 million from the European Commission, 80% of it being redistributed across continuous open calls, with no less than 300 projects expected to be funded.

Si l'effort semble minime à l'échelle Européenne, son impact pourrait s'avérer plus considérable qu'on ne l'imagine, avec quelque 300 projets soutenus sur trois ans, certains affectant l'avenir de tous. Nous vous devons donc des explications.</p><p>Le logiciel libre (ou "open source") s'impose au point de dépasser 80% du code des logiciels à l'échelle mondiale : outre les serveurs d'internet, il est partout dans nos téléphones, ordinateurs, téléviseurs, automobiles, et derrière les services dont nous bénéficions, sites marchands, réseaux sociaux ou services publics.</p><p>Nous en sommes peu conscients, dans un monde où il est admis que les recettes de cuisine soient libres (à quelques exceptions près, comme le Coca Cola ou la liqueur de Chartreuse), que le texte des romans soit accessible mais protégé par le copyright, et que le code informatique, dont dépend notre vie numérique, soit à la fois protégé et inaccessible.</p><p>Le code d'un logiciel est au système qu'il anime ce que la recette de cuisine est au plat : comme la recette, rien n'empêche qu'il soit accessible à tous. S'il ne l'est pas, il s'agit d'un choix, et si nous sommes persuadés que c'est la norme, d'une croyance.</p><p>Beaucoup connaissent <span class="wikiexternallink"><a data-xwiki-translated-attribute-taget="blank" href="https://www.wikipedia.org/">Wikipedia</a></span> : son code et ses données sont libres. C'est aussi le cas d'<span class="wikiexternallink"><a data-xwiki-translated-attribute-taget="blank" href="https://www.openstreetmap.fr/">Open Street Map</a></span>, service de cartographie comparable à Google Maps. <span class="wikiexternallink"><a data-xwiki-translated-attribute-taget="blank" href="https://joinmastodon.org/">Mastodon</a></span>, concurrent du réseau social X (ex Twitter), est aussi un logiciel libre.</p><p>Libre signifie que chacun peut l'utiliser, s'en inspirer, y contribuer, donc opérer des services similaires à ceux décrits, les améliorer, pallier leur absence si nécessaire. Si Google éteint Maps, vous aurez une carte grâce à Open Street Map, et si ses serveurs s'arrêtent, des entreprises, associations, universités, états et particuliers pourront aussitôt fournir un service équivalent.</p><p>Il en découle deux faits essentiels : le logiciel libre permet d'établir des services communs résilients et souverains car échappant à la mainmise d'un acteur unique, et impacte positivement nos droits et libertés publics, en nous rendant les clés de nos destins numériques. Nous avons la recette du plat que l'on nous sert !</p><p>Les communs numériques libres, comme Wikipedia, Open Street Map ou Mastodon, sont opérés par des écosystèmes collaboratifs dont la dynamique peut surprendre : l'association Open Street Map compte trois salariés. S'y ajoutent nombre de bénévoles et associations du monde entier contribuant à programmer, cartographier ou héberger des serveurs, une galaxie d'entreprises commercialisant des applications ou services qui y sont liés, des universités ou services publics (comme l'IGN en France) fournissant des données cartographiques ou des moyens informatiques, des donateurs, des subventions d'états, du mécénat d'entreprises, etc.</p><p>Une association minuscule assortie d'un écosystème bourdonnant et passionné engendre un concurrent crédible à Google Maps, non intrusif et résilient. Mastodon, guère mieux loti en termes d'emplois directs, menace X, sans algorithme faisant primer le sensationnel sur la qualité. Wikipedia est notre principal point d'accès au savoir, sans collecter nos données privées.</p><p>La fable de la "licorne", startup issue d'un garage soutenue par des investisseurs visionnaires pour conquérir le monde, se voit opposer un récit alternatif : le commun issu de logiciels libres, qu'un écosystème enthousiaste transforme en succès mondial. Y adhérer collectivement, plutôt qu'au précédent, lui octroierait le même pouvoir auto-réalisateur, mais orienté vers la démocratie et les libertés civiles : changer de mythe change le monde !</p><p>Que vingt-sept millions d'Euros et l'action conjointe de quelques fondations à soutenir le genre de projets que l'on vient d'évoquer y suffisent n'a rien d'invraisemblable, car c'est à vous, à nous tous qu'appartient d'écrire un récit nouveau : nous attendons vos projets et idées, bienvenue, et merci d'avance !</p></div></td></tr></table>Press Releases2023-11-27T10:45:58+01:00Olivier BouzereauPierre-Yves GibelloLivre blanc: Perspectives et visions acteurs de l'open source

One year after the second version of the handbook, significant progres has been achieved, providing a more sophisticated and accurate support to organizations of all types in their move to establish OSPOs (Open Source Program Offices). </p><p>The release V1.2 includes updates and improvements on the following topics:</p><p>• <strong>Relationships</strong>: to maximise the value of inter-dependencies or optimal sequence of activities, we added links to related activities, where possible.<br/>• <strong>InnerSource</strong>: addition of a new chapter about the use of open source principles and practices for software development within the confines of an organisation. Many companies deploy such an approach as they recognise the benefits of Open Source. Some GGI activities are particularly relevant in such a context.<br/>• <strong>My GGI Board</strong> (GitLab board and website to monitor OSPO implementation): easier deployment and improved reporting on activity progress with new diagrams.</p><p><em>"The improvements in this new version of the manual are intentionally very specific and pragmatic"</em> says Boris Baldassari, chairperson of the OSPO Alliance. <em>"With this update, we're answering some very practical questions: where to start, what activities to prioritise, how to monitor and communicate about the implementation of my OSPO? And the fact that we're available in 6 languages makes it even easier to embrace Open Source."</em></p><p><em>"The GGI was of major help when we implemented the Paris City OSPO and its associated roadmap,"</em> adds Philippe Bareille, Open Source Office at Paris City. <em>"This new version benefits as much from our experience as we have benefited from feedback from other players in the community"</em>.</p><p>In parallel of the availability of v1.2, a huge translation effort was done recently, making the handbook available in six languages (see the related Press Release). GGI is presented publicly this week at EclipseCon, and will be visible afterwards in some major open source conferences, in Italy (SFScon, Bolzano, November 10-11) and in Paris (Open Source Experience, Paris, December 6-7). The OnRamp monthly meeting series is another opportunity to discover OSPO Alliance and GGI, the existing tools and methods, and real-life OSPO stories. The November 17th OnRamp meeting, at 10:30 CET, Boris Baldassari will cover in details the new additions to this version.</p><p> <br/><strong>About OSPO Alliance and GGI</strong>:<br/>The OSPO Alliance is an open community that brings and shares guidance to organisations willing to professionally manage the usage, contribution to and publication of open source software. The Good Governance Initiative (GGI) proposes a methodological framework to assess and improve open-source trust, awareness and strategy within organisations.

With this major achievement, the handbook reaches out a potential of thousands of readers (472 millions of persons are speaking one of the translated languages, including the Brazilians). <br/>The GGI methodology to help implement corporate-wide open source policies, and set up an OSPO “Open Source Program Office”, can now be easily exported and used worldwide. </p><p>Thanks to the open translation process applied, a large number of contributors has already been involved and this number is expected to grow significantly in the coming years. Based on the open source collaborative management tool Weblate, this process enables translators to benefit from an easy to use interface and tight version control integration, along with quality checks. Other languages will come in the future, including Chinese which has been started.</p><p>In parallel of translations, other developments are happening such as the improvement of the implementation methodology, with the GGI Automated Deployment feature. New governance rules allow today to manage the initiative as an open source project. Several Task Forces are also meeting regularly and addressing specific topics, such as the metrics integrated to measure successes at each step, or the integration of InnerSource in the methodology. </p><p>The OnRamp monthly meeting series is a unique communication channel set up to give more visibility about the existing tools and methods, the best practices, but also to showcase testimonies and real-life OSPO stories. Join the next online OnRamp meeting, October 20 at 10:30 CEST, where Anne-Marie Scott, Apereo Foundation, will talk about OSPO in the Academic World. </p><p>The GGI methodology will be soon presented publicly in some major open source conferences, in Italy (RIOS Open Source Week, October 3-5 in Roma and SFScon, Bolzano, November 10-11) and in Germany (EclipseCon, October 16-19, in Ludwisburg). <br/> <br/><strong>About OSPO Alliance and GGI:</strong><br/>The OSPO Alliance is an open community that brings and shares guidance to organisations willing to professionally manage the usage, contribution to and publication of open source software.

Cette version comprend des améliorations majeures, notamment un processus de traduction, un déploiement automatisé et un premier cas d'utilisation, présentés à Open Source Experience (OSXP), les 8 et 9 novembre. Le cadre méthodologique de GGI aide à évaluer et à améliorer la sensibilisation, la conformité et la gouvernance de l'open source au sein des organisations. Aujourd'hui, GGI fait partie intégrante de l’OSPO Alliance, lancée en 2021 par des organisations européennes à but non lucratif (OW2, Eclipse Foundation, OpenForum Europe et Foundation for Public Code). Dans le cadre des outils fournis par l'initiative, le manuel GGI « GGI Handbook » distingue 25 activités, de l'analyse des composants logiciels et des meilleures pratiques de développement, à la formation, aux RH et à l'éducation des cadres, qui sont organisées en objectifs, de la découverte à l'engagement et à la stratégie. Ce processus d'évaluation aboutit à des tableaux de bord permettant de décrire et d'évaluer comment chaque activité est mise en œuvre dans une organisation.<br/>Avec l’arrivée de la version 1.1, la méthodologie GGI inclut les nouvelles fonctionnalités suivantes :<br/>• <strong>Disponibilité linguistique et traduction du manuel GGI</strong> : Un processus de traduction ouvert a été mis en place et s'appuie sur le logiciel open source weblate. Des versions allemande et française sont déjà disponibles, et trois autres langues sont en cours de traduction: portugais, espagnol, italien.<br/>• <strong>Déploiement automatisé</strong> : la nouvelle fonctionnalité de déploiement permet à tout utilisateur d'installer rapidement sa propre instance sur GitLab et d'accéder à un tableau de bord personnalisé à l'aide de l’interface "My GGI Board".<br/>• <strong>Cas d’usages</strong> : la dissémination, l’adoption et le déploiement de la méthodologie pour obtenir des retours des utilisateurs fait partie des objectifs de l'initiative. Une première implémentation et témoignage client avec la Ville de Paris est disponible et était présentée lors de l'OSXP par Philippe Bareille, Responsable Open Source.<br/> <br/>D'autres développements sont sur la feuille de route pour les mois à venir, tels que l'enrichissement du manuel, l'ajout de nouvelles métriques pour mieux suivre les progrès réalisés, le déploiement sur plusieurs plates-formes et davantage d'événements proposés via la série de webinaires OnRamp.<br/> <br/><strong>A propos OSPO Alliance et GGI</strong> :<br/>L’initiative de bonne gouvernance (GGI) propose un cadre méthodologique pour évaluer et améliorer la sensibilisation, la conformité et la gouvernance open source dans tout type d'organisation, en aidant à construire et à maintenir un OSPO réussi.

This version includes major improvements (i.e. translation process, automated deployment and a first use case) which will be presented at Open Source Experience, Nov. 8-9.</p><p>The Good Governance Initiative (GGI) methodological framework helps to assess and improve open-source awareness, compliance and governance within organizations. Today the GGI is an integral part of the OSPO Alliance, which was launched in 2021 by European non-profit organizations (OW2, Eclipse Foundation, OpenForum Europe and Foundation for Public Code). As part of the tools provided by the initiative, the GGI Handbook distinguishes 25 activities, from Software Composition Analysis and development best practices, to training, HR and executives' education, which are organized into goals, from discovery to engagement and strategy. This evaluation process leads to scorecards enabling to describe and assess how each activity is implemented in a company.</p><p>With the achievement of the version 1.1, the GGI framework includes the following features :<br/> • <strong>Language availability and translation of the GGI Handbook</strong>: An open translation process has been set up and is based on the dedicated open source project weblate. German and French versions are already available, and three others languages are under preparation : Portuguese, Spanish, Italian.<br/> • <strong>Automated Deployment</strong>: The new deployment feature enables any user to quickly install its own instance on GitLab and get access to a customized dashboard using the “My GGI Board”.<br/> • <strong>Success Stories</strong>: Developing market adoption by engaging users and organizations of all sizes, and get market feedback is part of the initiative’s objectives. A first implementation and customer testimonial with the City of Paris is available and will be presented during Open Source Experience by Philippe Bareille, Open Source Officer on November 8 at 17:45.<br/>Further developments are on the roadmap for the coming months, such as enrichment of the handbook, integration of metrics to better track progress, deployment on multiple platforms, and more events proposed through the OnRamp webinar series.<br/> <br/><strong>About OSPO Alliance and GGI</strong>:<br/>The Good Governance Initiative (GGI) proposes a methodological framework to assess and improve open-source awareness, compliance and governance in any type of organizations, helping them to build and maintain a successful OSPO.

Collaboratively developed in the framework of the OW2 Open Source Good Governance initiative, the handbook introduces a methodology to implement professional management of open source software in an organisation. It addresses the need to use open source software properly and fairly, safeguarding organisations from technical, legal and IP threats, and maximising for them the advantages of open source.</p><p>This methodology goes beyond compliance and liability. It is about building awareness in communities of end-users (open software developers themselves) and systems integrators, and developing mutually beneficial relationships within the FOSS ecosystem.</p><p>The Good Governance Handbook provides a comprehensive methodology based on a few key concepts. From a generic perspective, the approach is structured along five Goals (Usage, Trust, Culture, Engagement and Strategy), each supported by five Canonical Activities described in the handbook. At execution stage, the methodology requires adapting the Canonical Activities to the specific condition of each organisation by transferring them into Customized Activity Scorecards which, put together, constitute a roadmap for setting up and running an Open Source Program Office (OSPO) and a management system to monitor progress.</p><p>The OSS Good Governance Handbook is the first major publication of the OSPO Alliance to help companies and public institutions implement an Open Source Program Office (OSPO). The OSPO Alliance provides an organisation-neutral venue for contributors to share resources, experience and skills. Supporters can opt to contribute in several ways: at the new OSPO.Zone website, contribute directly to the next steps of the Good Governance Initiative methodology, and share their experiences (both successes and failures!) as case studies or with more informal short interviews. </p><p>“This publication is the result of nearly two years of collaborative work with OW2 members and OSS practitioners. We are now moving to the implementation and customization phase with some key adopters of the methodology. We are excited to publish this effort with the OSPO Alliance,” said Cédric Thomas, CEO of OW2.</p><p>The OSPO Alliance is also pleased to welcome eight new supporters, including the Free Software Foundation Europe, SAP, and WiPro.</p><h3 id="HQuotationsFromSupportersAboutTheirParticipationIntheOSPOAlliance:" class="wikigeneratedid wikigeneratedheader"><span>Quotations From Supporters About Their Participation In the OSPO Alliance:</span></h3><p><img src="https://www.apell.info/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/cropped-APELL435x90.png" width="220px" class="ossLogo wikigeneratedid" title="APELL Logo" alt="APELL Logo" id="Ihttps:2F2Fwww.apell.info2Fwp-content2Fuploads2F20202F052Fcropped-APELL435x90.png"/><br/>“APELL (Association Professionnelle Européenne du Logiciel Libre), Europe’s Open Source Business Association, and its national members, are eager to support the mission of the OSPO Alliance. Europe is an open source champion, and there is still massive potential to tap everywhere from large and small software vendors to big open source users, both in the private and public sectors. We see that this partnership will be very important to strengthening not only Europe's but the world's capacity to use and contribute to open source at an even greater scale. Increased understanding of open source governance and the establishment of Open Source Programme Offices hold massive potential to enable open innovation at large in society,” said Timo Väliharju, Founder and board member of APELL.</p><p><img src="https://www.ow2.org:443/download/Membership_Joining/Associate_Organizations/cnll_logo.png?width=100&rev=1.1" width="100px" class="ossLogo wikigeneratedid" title="CNLL Logo" alt="CNLL Logo" id="IMembership_Joining.Associate_Organizations40cnll_logo.png"/><br/>“The CNLL, the association representing the free software sector in France, has long supported the creation of OSPOs, or "free software missions", in France, at the level of the Government but also at the level of major local authorities, as well as at the European level. The mission of these OSPOs in France should be to make concrete the notion of "encouraging the use of free software" within the administration, as provided for in Article 16 of the Digital Republic Act (or Lemaire Act) of 2016. These OSPOs should network with each other and with organizations representing the industry in order to fully realize the economic and strategic benefits of OSS in Europe,” said Stéfane Fermigier, co-president of CNLL.</p><p><img src="https://www.ow2.org:443/download/Membership_Joining/Associate_Organizations/OSBA.jpg?width=150&rev=1.1" width="150px" class="ossLogo wikigeneratedid" title="OSBA Logo" alt="OSBA Logo" id="IMembership_Joining.Associate_Organizations40OSBA.jpg"/><br/>“The OSB Alliance – Bundesverband für digitale Souveränität e.V. represents about 170 companies from the Open Source economy. We are committed to sustainably anchoring the central importance of open source software and open standards for a digitally sovereign society in the public consciousness.</p><p>“For the OSB Alliance establishing an OSPO is a great strategic approach for public or private organisations to professionalize their engagement with the Open Source Ecosystem. So we see the OSPO Alliance as an exciting new European initiative to support organisations in the public, private or academia sector with information and best practices on OSPOs. Such support can especially accelerate the process of setting up important OSPOs as planned e.g. at EU level or the planned Zendis in Germany,” declared Peter Ganten, Chairman of the OSBA-Board.</p><p><img src="https://www.ow2.org:443/download/Membership_Joining/Associate_Organizations/fsfe_logo.jpg?width=110&rev=1.1" width="110px" class="ossLogo wikigeneratedid" title="FSFE Logo" alt="FSFE Logo" id="IMembership_Joining.Associate_Organizations40fsfe_logo.jpg"/> <br/>“The Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) is a charity that empowers users to control technology. Since 2001 the FSFE has been enhancing users' rights by abolishing barriers for software freedom. For 20 years FSFE has been helping individuals and organisations to understand how Free Software contributes to freedom, transparency, and self-determination.</p><p>Joining OSPO.Zone is another brick in the wall to ensure that more Free Software is developed and used - be it in the private or governmental sector. Free Software gives everybody the right to use, study, share and improve software.

L’évaluation des projets open source est un challenge permanent qu’OW2 a relevé avec succès en définissant un indicateur composite unique. La méthode a déjà été appliquée à la base de code OW2 et est mise à disposition de l’ensemble de la communauté open source.</p><p>L’objectif des MRL est de faciliter l’adoption des logiciels open source par les décideurs traditionnels, c’est-à-dire ceux qui ne sont pas nécessairement familiers avec l’open source. Pour ces nouveaux utilisateurs formés aux pratiques commerciales des vendeurs de logiciels propriétaires l’open source reste un modèle contre-intuitif dont les spécificités techniques, juridiques et communautaires sont source d’incertitudes peu propices à des décisions positives. Avec MRL les décideurs disposent d’un index qui positionne les projets open source en fonction de critères de décision “business” auxquels ils sont habitués. L’open source va à leur rencontre. </p><p>MRL est à la fois un outil d’aide à la décision pour les développeurs, architectes et décideurs IT, et un instrument d’auto-évaluation pour les responsables de projets. MRL permet à ces derniers d’identifer les axes d’amélioration qui accroitront le potentiel d’adoption du projet par le marché. A un niveau plus général, MRL a pour ambition de contribuer à la professionnalisation et à l’industrialisation du secteur du logiciel open source. La méthode vise à rendre les projets plus « consommables » par le marché, et améliore en parallèle le niveau de confiance des utilisateurs.<br/>Les détails de la méthodologie, ses trois niveaux d’analyse et la centaine de critères pris en compte seront présentés à Open Source Experience (OSXP) lors d’une session dédiée. Cinq projets de la base de code OW2 évalués par la méthode prendront ensuite la parole (XWiki, LemonLDAP, BlueMind, Lutece, et OCS Inventory). Ces retours d’expériences et témoignages permettront d’illustrer les bénéfices de MRL pour les producteurs de technologies open source. MRL est accessible bien évidemment en open source et librement applicable à d’autres bases de code.</p><p>Assistez à la présentation de MRL à Open Source Experience le 10 novembre à 11h15, salle 243. </p><p><strong>A propos d’OW2</strong> <br/>OW2 est une communauté informatique indépendante dédiée à la promotion du logiciel open source et à l’animation d’un écosystème d'affaires.

Evaluating open source projects is a permanent challenge that OW2 has chosen to meet by defining a unique composite indicator. The method is now applied to the projects from the OW2 code base.</p><p>This indicator facilitates the evaluation and adoption of open source projects from the point of view of corporate information systems managers, those who are not familiar with open source. For these new users, educated in the commercial practices of proprietary software vendors, open source remains a counter-intuitive model; its technical, legal and community specificities are a source of uncertainty that is not very favourable to positive decisions. Mainstream decision-makers must hear a language they understand. This is the role of the Market Readiness Levels (MRL) method developed by OW2 for evaluating open source projects. With MRL, decision-makers have a familiar indicator that positions open source projects according to the “business” decision criteria they are used to. Open source is moving towards them.</p><p>MRL is both a decision support tool for developers, architects and IT decision makers, and a self-assessment tool for project managers. MRL allows them to identify areas for improvement that will increase the potential for adoption of the project by the market. At a more general level, MRL aims to contribute to the professionalization and industrialization of the open source software sector. The method aims to make the projects more "consumable" by the market, and at the same time improves the level of user confidence. Details of the methodology, its three levels of analysis and the hundreds of criteria taken into account will be presented to Open Source Experience (OSXP) during a dedicated session. Five projects from the OW2 code base evaluated by the method will then speak (XWiki, LemonLDAP, BlueMind, Lutece, and OCS Inventory). This feedback and testimonials will illustrate the benefits of MRL for producers of open source technologies. MRL is obviously accessible in open source and freely applicable to other code bases. </p><p>Join the MRL presentation at Open Source Experience on November 10 at 10h30, room 243. </p><p><strong>About OW2:</strong><br/>OW2 is an independent community dedicated to promoting open source software for information systems and to fostering their business ecosystems.

https://www.ow2.org:443/view/Press_Releases/OW2_and_OSA_plan_to_join_forces?language=en
<p>We announced our intention to merge at the Open World Forum in Paris on October 1. </p><p>This is an unprecedented move in the open source world that will create unique global open source organization with prominent members in Europe, China, Brazil and North America dedicated to supporting research, development, distribution, and adoption of open source software at all levels of the information systems.</p><p>The merge was motivated by the strong complementarity between OSA and OW2 as illustrated by the expression "two puzzle pieces waiting to be put together", the most repeated comment in the press. Indeed, OW2 relative strengths lie in its governance, its technical infrastructure, its broad code base focusing on open source infrastructure software and its global membership in Europe, China and Brazil while OSA relative strengths are in marketing, commercial open source, its focus on open source applications and technology integration, and in its strong North-American membership.</p><p>The time is right, the software industry is changing, open source has grown globally and in all product categories. Vendors, systems integrators and end-users need an integrated platform where they can find reliable code, community and professional support to help implement their open source strategies. </p><p>The merged entity will retain the OW2 governance structure and name. The OSA brand will be not disappear, it will be maintained and combined with the OW2 brand. The merged organization will be called OW2, and OSA members will constitute the OW2' North American Chapter. The OSA members volunteered their extensive marketing and communication expertise to revive and lead the Ecosystem Council. </p><p>The final details of the merger will be worked out by a Transition Operation Group (TOG) comprised of six members, three from each organization: Jean-Pierre Laisné (BULL), Gaël Blondelle (EBM WebSourcing) and Cedric Thomas for OW2 and Anthony Gold (Bluenog), Deb Woods (Ingres) and Nick Halsey (Jaspersoft) for OSA. We consider there is a transition period during which three OSA board members will be given seats on the OW2 board, until a new election takes place early in 2010. </p><p>See the press release:</p><h1 style="text-align:center">Introducing a Global Voice and Platform for Open Source</h1><p><em>OW2 and OSA Plan to Join Forces to Unite Organizations Around the World and Up the Stack by Speaking with One Voice on Research, Technology, Business,and Policy Issues.</em></p><p>Read the <span class="wikiattachmentlink"><a href="https://www.ow2.org:443/download/Press_Releases/OW2_and_OSA_plan_to_join_forces/ow2-osa-merger-press-release093009.pdf?rev=1.4">Press Release</a></span> in english.</p><p>Read the <span class="wikiattachmentlink"><a href="https://www.ow2.org:443/download/Press_Releases/OW2_and_OSA_plan_to_join_forces/ow2-osamergerpressrelease-FR.pdf?rev=1.4">Press Release</a></span> in french.</p><p>See the related videos, realized during the Open World Forum conference, Oct. 1-2, 2009. : <br/><span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://blip.tv/file/2929725">Interview of Cédric Thomas</a></span>, CEO of OW2 Consortium (in French language).<br/><span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://www.blip.tv/file/2929732/">Interview of Nick Halsey</a></span>, Co-Founder of Open Solutions Alliance and VP of Marketing and Product Management at Jaspersoft (in English language).</p><hr/><div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div><p>View the <strong>Press Report</strong>:</p><p>Oct. 1 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://community.zdnet.co.uk/blog/0,1000000567,10014053o-2000331828b,00.htm">Open source groups to merge, Tom Espiner, ZDNetUK</a></span></p><p>Oct. 1 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://www.pcw.co.uk/v3/news/2250448/open-source-groups-hook">OW2 Consortium and Open Solutions Alliance to merge, David Neal, Personal Computer World</a></span></p><p>Oct. 1 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://ostatic.com/blog/osa-and-ow2-announce-merger-plans#continue">OW2 and OSA announce merger plans, Lisa Hoover, Ostatic (blog)</a></span></p><p>Oct. 1 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://www.computing.co.uk/computing/news/2250444/open-source-organisations-merge">Open source organisations merge, Andrew Charlesworth, Computing</a></span></p><p>Oct. 1 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://blog.internetnews.com/skerner/2009/10/-introducing-a-global-voice.html">Open Solutions Alliance folds into new open source group, Internet News, Sean Michael Kerner</a></span></p><p>Oct. 2 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://www.information-management.com/news/open_source-10016216-1.html">A Global Voice for Open Source, Information Management Online, Julie Langenkamp</a></span></p><p>Oct. 2 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://www.h-online.com/open/Open-World-Forum-Open-source-consortia-to-merge--/news/114374">Open World Forum: Open source consortia to merge</a></span></p><p>Oct. 2 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://www.lemagit.fr/article/unisys-middleware-jaspersoft-talend-csc-ow2-open-source-alliance-ingres-bonitasoft/4419/1/ow2-fusionne-avec-open-source-alliance-quand-techno-approche-marche-conjuguent/">OW2 fusionne avec l'Open Source Alliance, où quand techno et approche marché se conjuguent, LeMagIT, Cyrille Chausson</a></span></p><p>Oct. 2 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://www.lemondeinformatique.fr/actualites/lire-open-world-forum-ow2-se-rapproche-de-l-americaine-osa-29217.html">Open World Forum : OW2 se rapproche de l'Américaine OSA, LeMondeInformatique, Olivier Rafal</a></span></p><p>Oct. 5 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://www.pro-linux.de/news/2009/14780.html">OW2-Konsortium und Open Solutions Alliance schließen sich zusammen, Pro-Linux.de</a></span></p><p>Oct. 5 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://blogs.zdnet.com/open-source/?p=4947">Open Solutions Alliance acquired by Europeans, ZD Net Blogs, Dana Blankenhorn</a></span></p><p>Oct. 9 - <span class="wikiexternallink"><a href="http://www.channelnews.fr/actu-societes/prestataires/4502-open-source-low2-et-lopen-solutions-alliance-vont-fusionner.html">Open Source: l'OW2 et l'OSA se fiancent, Channelnews.fr, Dirk Basyn</a></span></p>Press Releases2009-10-01T12:00:00+02:00Admin OW2OW2Beihang Uni.

The first Open Source application server fully based on OSGiTM architecture and technology, JOnAS 5 offers a new-generation approach to application servers. Completely rewritten to be based on OSGiTM modules, JOnAS 5 implements a service-oriented architecture in the application server itself, enabling the server and its services to be dynamically adapted and extended depending on users? needs and the constraints of their environment. As a result, with JOnAS end users benefit from a breakthrough modular and flexible platform, that can be dynamically adapted to their needs, upgraded without interruption of service, extended on the fly with new services and opened up to the multitude of third-party services from the OSGiTM world, such as RFID. Thanks to JOnAS 5, the OSGi and Java EE worlds will be able to share services.</li><li>Easy application development and deployment, through smart Java EE 5 support. With Java EE 5 compliance and complete integration with OW2 EasyBeans technology (EJB3), JOnAS 5 offers simple development, integration and deployment features. JOnAS 5 leverages the ?ease of development? features of Java EE 5 by providing additional facilities. In particular, the EasyBeans EJB3 container provides automatic reloading of classes and a faster development and deployment process. Large-scale deployments are also simplified with a smart and reduced API capable of downloading higher level APIs from the server. As a result, end users and developers can easily design, distribute and run their Java applications with low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).</li><li>Autonomous clustering management, offers ultimate scalability and high availability. As a result of the associated OW2 project JASMINe, JOnAS 5 now offers the most advanced cluster configuration and management tools in the Open Source world today. Dynamic clustering, load balancing and replication are ensured. It will also enable autonomous behavior, with self-repair and self-optimization according to set management rules. As a result, JOnAS 5 offers the perfect Open Source solution to organizations wishing to deploy highly scalable and available application services for mission-critical applications.</li></ul><p>JOnAS 5 incorporates many innovations, combining years of research from the members of its development community across Europe (Bull, France Telecom, INRIA, LIFL, UJF, UPM...), Asia (CVICSE, Peking University...) and America (UNIFOR...). The objective is prepare for the dynamic SOAs of the future, while solving today?s enterprise needs for mission-critical scalability and availability.</p><p>An Open Foundation Platform For Dynamic Service-Oriented Architectures</p><p>As one of the cornerstones of the middleware solutions delivered by the OW2 consortium, JOnAS is at the heart of OW2?s new ?Reference Architecture?. It is a foundation of OW2?s rich solutions ecosystem, which includes advanced portal solutions (such as the Exoplatform portal ), ESB solutions (including the Petals Enterprise Service Bus) and business process management solutions (combining the Bonita XPDL workflow manager and Orchestra BPEL solution), among many others.</p><p>?JOnAS 5 is a strategic milestone in the development of JOnAS,? concludes François Exertier, R&D Manager at Bull and JOnAS project Manager at OW2. ?It embodies the mission and the values of our community: combining the open innovations of a large international community ? including some of the leading IT research organizations in Europe, Asia and America ? and our commitment to provide a platform for mission-critical computing. By introducing breakthrough modularity with OSGiTM architecture, we are providing a modular platform that can be easily complemented by third parties. It will also be well suited for Java EE 6 profiles. We call on other Open Source communities and ISVs to join us in our efforts, and to add contributions to this open platform.?</p><p>More information on the JOnAS project Web site</p><p>JOnAS 5.0 (Release Candidate) will be available on 14 December 2007.</p><p>More information about JOnAS is available at the JOnAS project Web site: <span class="wikiexternallink"><a class="wikimodel-freestanding" href="http://jonas.objectweb.org"><span class="wikigeneratedlinkcontent">http://jonas.objectweb.org</span></a></span></p><p>About OW2</p><p>Founded in January 2007 as a result of the merger of ObjectWeb and OrientWare communities, OW2 is an independent industry consortium dedicated to developing Open Source code middleware and to fostering a vibrant community and business ecosystem.
