Defining Open in Open Data, Open Content and Open Knowledge
The Open Definition sets out principles that define “openness” in relation to data and content.
Un effort de définir ce que veut dire open en regard aux données et au contenu.

La page GitHub présentant les activités de développement de l'institution. Utile, intéressant et ouvert.
This site is the home of simple protocols and formats for working with open data. Our mission is both to make it easier to develop tools and services for working with data, and, to ensure greater interoperability between new and existing tools and services.
Projet pour la création d'une Knowledgebase ouverte, en partenariat avec Kuali OLE, JISC et quelques autres.
At its core, GOKb is a knowledge base that will describe electronic journals and books, publisher packages, and platforms in a way that will be familiar to librarians who have worked with electronic resources. GOKb aims to go further by introducing several improvements to the standard set of knowledge base metadata. The enhanced data model will track changes over time, including publisher take-overs and bibliographic changes, and an expanded set of identifiers.
[...]
The data found in GOKb will be made freely available to libraries, academic publishers, library service providers, and the public using a web-based interface and APIs. It will include a co-referencing servce that will allow users to crosswalk data between systems and sets of identifiers. In addition to serving the community, open data offers practical benefits, including improved accuracy resulting from the expertise of many contributors and a dataset that is not tied to any one commercial product.
C'est un projet important, parce que la Knowledgebase permet de savoir comment accéder à telle ou telle revue scientifique, à tel ou tel article, dans le contexte des abonnements d'une institution particulière. Et actuellement, les vendeurs de logiciels commerciaux ont une capacité de négociation avec les éditeurs commerciaux de publications scientifiques qui est au-delà de celle des projets open source ou libres. D'autant plus quand les vendeurs et les éditeurs commerciaux sont dans le même groupe...

Un fournisseur de DNS ouvert et "démocratique". A l'ère du filtrage à tout va, vaut le peine de tester, non ?
Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developer, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.
