  35. U.S. Senate Commerce Committee and U.S. Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee introduce the Source Code Harmonization And Reuse in Information Technology (SHARE IT) Act, bipartisan legislation that requires government agencies to share custom-developed source code with each other—thereby avoiding duplicative government contracts to build software.

    #DigitalTransformation to extend/update services as well as improving internal practices.

    The role and value of #OpenSource software and practice in government.

    Importance of #Accessibility and #UserExperience.

    "….thinking about affordable, low-cost, or open source textbooks serves similar goals of accessibility and inclusivity as, for instance, diversifying the syllabus and reading materials, and designing assignments that cater to neurodivergent students, etc.”"

    Including #OpenSource software will extend these benefits; democratizing #HigherEducation and making it more accessible and inclusive,

  38. "Proprietary software – whose source code is private, must be purchased by license and can only be modified by its author, typically a company – comes with major barriers such as high costs and vendor lock-in, making #OSS more appealing as a viable alternative for digital [#higherEducation] services."

    Replace "government" with "higher education" and the piece still resonates, e.g.:

    "The potential of #OSS to provide innovative solutions for [#HigherEducation] has become increasingly apparent, with the development of tools that are responsive to each [campus’] unique needs and challenges, possibly at a significantly lower cost…."

    Dynamics of diversity and productivity in the #OpenSource software settings:

    1. Teams tend to be less diverse than the available pool of contributors, primarily due to homophily and,
    2. teams that add diversity have higher productivity...
