Open in Vermont is an informal cross-segment of individuals and organizations in Vermont who are involved in free/open source software (FOSS), open standards and/or open content licensing (Creative Commons). On this blog, Vermont-based contributors from free/open source projects and other local businesses supporting FOSS discuss a wide range of topics, including:
- Vermont organizations and people benefiting from both using and contributing to FOSS projects;
- how contributing to FOSS can help you as a job candidate;
- benefits of community involvement such as user group participation;
- the network effects of adopting open standards;
- remote working and its economic benefits; and
- the win-win of contributing to the public commons when it comes to software, standards, and/or content.
