Open Source for America (OSFA) recently published a report card on open technology and open government across several U.S. federal government departments and agencies. The results:  One-third of agencies received a passing grade. OSFA, a coalition launched in July 2009 to encourage U.S. federal government support of and participation in open source projects and technologies, worked with government departments and agencies to develop the methodology and rate each group.
