Session
Since June 2025, the OSPO Alliance has been supporting two initiatives for FLOSS public sector organisations: one to define a schema to describe OSPOs, what they are and what they do (OSPOmeta), the other to inventory OSPOs in public administrations around the world (floss-pso.network). The presentation will provide an introduction and update on the evolution of the OSPOmeta schema, as well as the inventory of public sector OSPOs and how it is already helping to create opportunities for collaboration.
