Code is only a fraction of the software value-chain that delivers market-ready offerings.
Users expect market-ready offerings, i.e. code complemented by: packaging, services, training, maintenance, support, etc.
Users want a full business proposal, not just bare code.
Collaborative projects do not deliver market-ready offerings.
Collaborative R&D projects are expected to deliver POCs demonstrations and components.
Open source developers natural bias is to concentrate on core code functionalities.

Open Interoperability Framework
Provides a software taxonomy to classify products
We call them ''assets”
Based on cloud computing reference architecture...
ISO/IEC / ITU-T
. . . but will be extended as we add software assets.

Improve OSS managementThe charter's 12 key areasGovernance makes the difference
OSS Charter
Mar 9, 2015 31
The charter aims at contributing to the implementation of legal, technical and community management best practices
Improve the overall perception and market readiness of the projects
Make projects easy-to-contribute-to
Improve projects' perceived trustworthiness
Make projects sustainable: worth contributing to, worth investing in
Overall, improve professionalism of EU OSS SMEs and EU-supported open source projects
Mar 9, 2015 32
Governance makes the difference
Repositories and forges are just places to store/develop code
GitHub, BitBucket, SourceForge, BerliOS, etc.
Open source licensing code does not make an OSS project
Hundreds of thousands of OSS aer still waiting for contributors
Communities are built around well respected OSS governance
Transparent, Open, Fair, etc.
Third-party stakeholders expect:
Trustworthiness
Predictability
Mar 9, 2015 33
The OSS charterwill cover 12 broad chapters
Project documentation
Use of and compliance with standards
Project testing process
Licenses, copyright and IP mgt
Tools and development environment
Commits and bug report mgt
Code maintainability and stability
Configuration and version mgt
Project planning
Requirement management
Project roadmap management
