| 00:40.50 | plarsen | Would any of you happen to have a link to the DoD CIO memo that basically states "unless you can state a reason not to, open source must be used" ? |

| 01:09.23 | jsmith | plarsen: This one? dodcio.defense.gov/sites/oss/2009OSS.pdf |
| 01:09.57 | plarsen | jsmith, nahhh - I thought it was. But the one I'm looking for has a direct quote that puts Open Source first. That memo doesn't say that directly. |
| 01:10.06 | jsmith | Oh, OK |
| 01:10.10 | plarsen | But all my googling power is failing me ... |
| 01:10.23 | plarsen | Everything I find keeps pointing back to the 2009 memo you linked to. |
| 01:11.53 | jsmith | Yeah, I'm pretty sure the logic goes like this |
| 01:12.02 | jsmith | Open source is equivalent to COTS |
| 01:12.08 | jsmith | COTS gets priority over building something custom |
| 01:12.25 | jsmith | Hence, that puts open source ahead of custom apps |
| 01:12.29 | jduncan | plarsen: are you talking about the '03 MITRE report? |
| 01:12.34 | jsmith | More details on Gunnar's blog: http://atechnologyjobisnoexcuse.com/2009/11/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-2009-dod-oss-memo/ |
| 01:12.56 | plarsen | The crazy thing is I'm sure I have it somewhere on my laptop ... I just can't find it. |
| 01:13.29 | jduncan | lol. all i've ever heard of is the october '09 memo and a report from MITRE that drove the whole discussion way back when |
| 01:13.48 | plarsen | Nope jsmith. It's the same rehash I find other places. Although I like the message very much - it's not the one I was looking for. |
| 01:14.31 | plarsen | Well, I'll ask the old rep gurus tomorrow. I know they carry it around in their arsenal of "weapons" to win over the non-open source people. |
| 01:24.09 | jduncan | plarsen: where does your irc "infobot" live? |
| 01:24.39 | plarsen | MY??? |
| 01:24.48 | plarsen | Talk to jsmith - he's the infobot guy ;) |
| 01:24.51 | jduncan | "the royal your" |
| 01:25.39 | jduncan | jsmith, where does infobot live? |
| 01:25.56 | plarsen | .ircstats |
| 01:26.21 | jduncan | .ircstats |
| 01:26.30 | plarsen | infobot ircstats |
| 01:26.30 | infobot | Currently I'm hooked up to chat.freenode.net:6667 but only for 7d 8h 50m 56s. I had to reconnect 4 times. Connectivity: 100.00 % |
| 01:27.09 | jsmith | jduncan: Infobot lives on my friend's server :-p |
| 01:27.17 | jsmith | jduncan: (Tim Riker is his name) |
| 01:27.30 | jduncan | the little VPS i have a site or 2 on tends to bounce the instances periodically, killing my little bot in #rvalug. AH. |
| 01:27.42 | jduncan | yeah. might just re-start him here at the house. FiOS has pretty good uptime |
| 01:29.20 | plarsen | lol |
| 01:50.53 | jduncan | rvalugbot's back up. somehow i feel better... |
