Open Source Software Association

An Open Source Software Association is a group that supports, promotes, and protects open source software—programs whose source code is freely available for anyone to view, modify, and share. The association advocates for open source principles, provides resources and community connections for developers, and may help with licensing and legal issues. Its goal is to foster collaboration, innovation, and wider adoption of open source solutions, benefiting businesses, developers, and users by ensuring transparency, flexibility, and collective improvement of software.
