	The Third International Conference on Open Source Systems - OSS 2007 -
		OSS has challenged the conventional wisdom of the software engineering and software business communities, has been instrumental for educators and researchers, and hasbecome an important aspect of e-government and information society initiatives.
		OSS is a complex phenomenon and requires a interdisciplinary understanding of its engineering, technical, economic, legal and socio-cultural dynamics.
		The goal of OSS 2007 is to provide an international forum where a diverse community of professionals from academia, industry and public administration can come together to share research findings and practical experiences.

	Office of Strategic Services - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		During the War, the OSS supplied policy makers with facts and estimates, but the OSS never had jurisdiction over all foreign intelligence activities—the FBI was responsible for intelligence work in Latin America, and the military jealously guarded their areas of responsibility.
		OSS operations in China, moreover, were badly penetrated by Communist agents working as clerical and housekeeping staff, or training in OSS camps for operational missions.
		The OSS agents would often risk their lives to plant bombs in unusual locations (riding boots, ventriliquist's dummy etc.) The main artist on the series was E.R. Cruz.

	Bootstrap Interfaces Definition by Leveraging OSS Common JSR Design and Shared Entities
		The OSS Common API was developed through the Java Community Process(JCP) as Java Specification Request (JSR) 144.
		The other OSS implementations will then be able to extend this common set of APIs, thereby avoiding unnecessary and wasteful duplication of the base interfaces and classes, such as data types and exception definitions.
		To be a truly common API for OSS, the OSS Common API implements the OSS Design guidelines, which are a set of Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE) patterns applied to Java APIs.

	OSS Observer - Global Telecom Software Market Analysis - Commentary
		The VIB OSS in Telecoms conference was held in London on March 6 and 7, 2008.
		OSS Observer's Larry Goldman participated as the conference chair on the first day and led a round table discussion on the second day.
		In doing this it is hampered by weak OSS support from its equipment vendors (a frequent comment from other CSP presenters), a lack of consistency in its own applications architecture and a lack of industry standards upon which to build.

	freshmeat.net: Project details for OSS
		OSS provides a user-friendly GUI which makes the installation of sound drivers and configuration of sound cards very simple.
		If the OSS developers decide to let you have some of thier work for free (real free this time), thats great, if they want to give you an evaluation period on the stuff that they dont want to give away for free, thats great too.
		These drivers are by far better then the kernel oss drivers and alsa, the sound quality is superior in orders of magnatude.

	The Usability of Open Source Software
		As OSS enters the commercial mainstream, a new emphasis is being placed on usability and interface design, with Caldera and Corel explicitly targeting the general desktop with their Linux distributions.
		OSS planning is usually done by the project initiator, before the larger group are involved [5].
		Thus there is a tendency for OSS applications to grow in complexity, reducing their usability for novices, but with that tendency to remain invisible to the developers who are not novices and relish the power of sophisticated applications.

	ArchWiki :: OSS - ArchWiki
		The Open Sound System (OSS) from www.opensound.com is a commercially-supported sound driver that works on several unix-like systems, including Linux, FreeBSD, and Solaris.
		The OSS was previously proprietary and being open-sourced recently, it has nothing to do with the sub-quality OSS/free in early linux kernels.
		The kernel module ("cuckoo") was 100% compatible with all the apps but it no longer works with latest OSS version; The alsa emulation lib in oss distribution is outdated and I don't know where to get the latest version.

	CIP Program : Core CIP Research : Open Source Software Licensing
		OSS, however, is usually the product of code contributions from various individuals collaborating on a common project from disparate geographical locations.
		As a mechanism to increase OSS contributions, many OSS licenses include a provision that the OSS community calls “copyleft.” One of the most common OSS licenses, used for some of the most widely distributed software, is the GNU General Public License (“GNU GPL” or “GPL”), which includes a copyleft provision.
		An OSS licensee receives no developer warrantees or indemnifications, but may be able to acquire indemnification from vendors or insurers.

	OSS through Java Initiative Overview
		Current OSS technology cannot cope with the rapidly increasing scale of networks, the diversity of communications technology, shortened time to market for new services, and heightened expectations for availability and reliability.
		The members of the OSS through Java Initiative are convinced that the fastest and most flexible way to develop OSS solutions is to embrace a multitier architecture, based on reusable components and container technology, with client access either by tightly or loosely coupled mechanisms.
		To promote the adoption of a component-based approach to developing OSS solutions, the members of the Initiative aim to kick-start a component marketplace that can ultimately offer interchangeable, interoperable components that can be rapidly assembled into OSS solutions.

		Made up of men and women drawn from diverse backgrounds ranging from debutantes to safecrackers to Yale professors to German prisoners of war, the secret agents of the OSS were true unsung heroes who made a significant contribution to the Allied victory in World War II.
		In Operatives, Spies, and Saboteurs, author Patrick K. O’Donnell draws upon recently declassified archives and hundreds of interviews with OSS veterans to reveal the intricacies of this fascinating covert war.
		Combining historical narrative with first-hand accounts, Operatives, Spies, and Saboteurs is a unique and powerful history, packed with stories of secret agents who used aliases and donned disguises, of beautiful female spies whose stock in trade was seduction, of interrogation and torture, secret weapons, biological warfare, even collaboration with the Mafia.

	Who's supporting your software?
		Open Source Software (OSS) is starting to appear in the mainstream enterprise environment—actually, some banks have been using the OSS model for years, for software and interfaces used in inter-bank communications, for example, which is shared by many banks.
		Using OSS for key mission-critical developments isn't more risky than relying on a proprietary software but it is, perhaps, differently risky—and the risks may be more visible.
		Part of the precondition for getting benefit from OSS is that you've done proper "due diligence " on the dark side in advance and, although this applies equally to proprietary software, those responsible for IT governance may not be as familiar with the OSS environment as they are with their familiar relationships with proprietary vendors.

	Break the OSS logjam
		Needed to support the dynamic e-care capabilities sought by service providers, OSS integration enables consumers and business partners to achieve their goal of electronic self-service for tasks ranging from simple access to personal information to performing complex e-commerce transactions.
		A lack of OSS integration will cause e-commerce applications to remain mired in the realm of passive information display that provides little value to customers and partners demanding full-access business interaction.
		The OSS integration solution must be customized to the requirements of the service provider and be built from the point solutions and legacy systems that best serve the customer's needs.
