The Third Decade Of Open Source
summary
Open source now underpins critical infrastructure from banking to electrical grids and faces regulatory pressure such as CRA, AI Act requiring manufacturers to know and fix what's in their software. The ecosystem shows a fragile supply chain, thousands of volunteer maintainers burning out, projects with patchy funding despite one-offs like the German sovereign fund and the alpha omega fund, and urgent needs for open models, open data, governance, and a pipeline of new maintainers.
