EDITOR'S NOTE
|
Good afternoon,
Today we bring you a great read on how to sell open source to the Australian Federal Government, with former Defence IT staffer Tom Worthington giving us his top tips.
We also explore the cost of maintaining a blacklist for the internet filter and whether Boingo's IT systems have developed a mind of their own.
