Open source in government covers a huge range of activities, including open sourcing our own code, using open source software and contributing to open source software. My first task was to define the strategy, work out what areas would have the most impact and then prioritise within those areas. I wrote about the strategy, and the areas I prioritised, on the GDS blog.
