summary
Sony splits governance into a non‑hierarchical group OSPO (policy, training, Linux/Foundation membership) and per‑business segment OSPOs to handle six distinct segments and legacy embedded Linux work since 2002. Practices include a managed open source license committee, published policy, compliance tooling and training, quarterly newsletter, internal OSS days, and shared contributions (Linux/Android kernels, WebKit, OpenColorIO, OpenShadingLanguage). The networked model is operating now: segment OSPOs launched for electronics/semiconductors and are already exchanging policies, compliance processes and code rather than forcing one uniform program.
