The words "Government" and "Open Source" triggered a question that I meant to ask a long time ago. I was talking with someone in the know and he mentioned that any (except where security is concerned) code paid for by the Federal (and possibly State) Government is open to us -the people who paid for the code through taxes. Has anyone ever heard of such a thing? What's the story? Does anyone know if there is a repository of some sort of such code? Matt W.
