relicensing and lack of resources for maintainers are only two top-level issues plaguing open source

Free and Open Source Software is eating the world, but is at the same time a victim of its own success. Large enterprises rely on libraries maintained by a single individual, or maybe worse yet: a single vendor.

Individuals or organizations may restrict the use of their technology or EOL versions of their software, posing real challenges to organizations and customers depending on that technology. How can we contribute to the viability and sustainability of open source?

All about open source! Feel free to ask questions, and share news, and interesting stuff!
