- Its going to happen...

There is a tremendous surge within the DoD Services and DISA/OSD to not only consume OSS but to also learn how to leverage the OSS dev model within their agencies and throughout the DoD.
These conversations are at the executive level now...no longer at the program level. Still issues (large and small) to be hurdled, But its going to happen. DoD infrastructure will be default Open Source. Now, what the missiles point at (targeting) and the specific keys for activating those missiles--those are things to protect...and will use methods known only to the DoD.
So now we have a hybrid model: true OSS (meaning open to everyone) being the default for infrastructure, and govOSS for special features that interop or control corners of the OSS.
