@cwebber "But seriously though, could open source orgs have some of that fighter jet wing money?"

That's what MIT is for, no? :)

@nemobis is it?

could MIT get us some of the jet wing money

@cwebber IIRC, Noam Chomsky wrote that over 60 % of MIT was funded with DoD money (until the 1970s?) and the DoD never checked where the money went. I don't know how much DoD money the MIT gets these days but it's probably still substantial. How much goes to FLOSS I don't know.
