White House releases source code for IT Dashboard

The White House open-sourced the Drupal-based ITDashboard.gov code, marking another step in U.S. Government adoption of Open Source.

Vivek Kundra just released the source code for ITDashboard.gov, a tool built with Drupal by REI Systems. You can find the source code at https://www.cio.gov/tools/.

More information can be found in a blog post by Alex Howard from O'Reilly Radar: White House releases IT Dashboard as Open Source code.

This is important for Drupal and Open Source: the U.S. government, one of the largest IT buyers and users in the world, has just taken another big step toward embracing Open Source and becoming an active contributor.

It also enables us, the Open Source community, to help the U.S. government enhance ITDashboard.gov or recommend it to our respective governments around the world. Very cool!
