  • OSS Watch is the United Kingdom's advisory service for issues relating to free software and open source software, based at the University of Oxford. OSS Watch started as a pilot project funded by the Joint Information Systems Committee (Jisc) in July 2003. It has provided consultations and briefing materials about the legal, social, technical and economic aspects of open source software. OSS Watch also organises and attends conferences and workshops relating to free and open source software, both within and outside the academic sector. From 2003 until 2013, OSS Watch received funding via Jisc to provide support to the further education and higher education sectors. From 2013, OSS Watch is funded partly from the University of Oxford, and partly from consultancy, training and other services, and is not restricted to supporting education. OSS Watch is not an advocacy group. Instead it seeks to provide rounded and unbiased advice and guidance, both for organisations selecting software solutions, and for those creating software. (en)
