Welcome once again to the OSS Watch monthly newsletter. As you know we are here to help you so why not put us to work? This month's featured article comes from Steve Lee who explains how to engage OSS Watch in support of your project bid. The full version of Steve's article, available on the OSS Watch website, also includes a checklist designed to be used as you work on your bid. In his blog piece Sander van der Waal talks about how OSS Watch has helped the Wookie project sustain itself beyond its initial funding period. To round us off Rowan Wilson brings us a chilling tale about what happens when the debates around software licensing meet the realities of using a pacemaker. Scary stuff.
