Open Stack

I am counsel for OSI and I am aware of the initiative which is mainly informational. I think that it could be helpful, but I would not expect too much.  Have they made a specific proposal?

OSI, Open Source Initiative, has offered to help the Foundation. They have a working group investigating IRS recent rejections of open source non-profits. Find the GM contact information below. Let me know if I can provide any further help.
