About Open Source News

Open Source News (OSN) was founded on a simple, uncompromising principle: the infrastructure of the modern internet deserves rigorous, independent journalism. As open-source software continues to eat the world, the decisions made by volunteer maintainers, foundation boards, and corporate sponsors impact billions of users. We are here to document those decisions.

Unlike traditional tech media that focuses on consumer gadgets or reprinting corporate press releases, OSN dives into the mailing lists, GitHub pull requests, and governance debates where the actual future of technology is written. From severe supply chain vulnerabilities to the interpersonal friction that shapes popular programming languages, our coverage is designed for the engineers, administrators, and architects operating at the ground level.

We remain fiercely independent and vendor-neutral, ensuring that our reporting on licensing disputes, security compliance, and community dynamics is completely uncompromised by corporate influence.
