End of the Go Open Source campaign
The Go Open Source campaign, an open source awareness campaign which launched in May 2004, has completed its two year run and officially concluded at the end of May 2006. The campaign was launched by Mark Shuttleworth on behalf of Canonical, the CSIR's Meraka Institute, HP, and The Shuttleworth Foundation.
While the conclusion of the campaign is undoubtedly a sad moment for those involved, many of the projects Go Open Source spawned will continue and over the coming year be transformed into self-sustaining entities.
"We believe that what we have achieved in such a short space of time is truly commendable," says Hilton Theunissen, project manager at The Shuttleworth Foundation. "After two years of excited and passionate investment, we can comfortably say that the campaign has intrinsically changed the lives of thousands of individuals, countless companies and government departments."
