summary
Universities run OSPOs that treat OSS as primary research object, run devops and tooling (they host and pay for the university GitHub and GitLab), and teach contribution skills through courses and a five-course minor plus immersion programs. Programs spun out real successes: a spinout grows to ~30 employees and another distro reaches ~18 million downloads. Funding and structure matter — a $2M gift seeded a research center that launches an OSPO pilot in January, and postdoc fellowships seed open communities.
