summary
Linux Foundation Research publishes 40 reports and summarizes four recent studies: a Europe public-sector study (30 interviews across 14 countries) finds about 12 of 27 countries with OSPOs and highlights Germany’s €11M Sovereign Tech Fund and a €500k grant to OpenJS; a Berkeley survey with 439 responses ranks benefits as faster development, cost savings, interoperability and costs as hidden support, security gaps, training; a maintainer study interviews 32 super maintainers and finds only 35% have a contributor pipeline, with bus-factor and fragmentation plus language and geopolitical barriers.
