Forking Culture and Committing Ops in Government
Samantha Simpson at OSCON 2014

This week we have an exclusive OSCON 2014 video available for 
you and your community to watch for a limited time. This was one 
of the most highly rated sessions in OSCON's community track and 
we wanted to share it with you. 

Culture shift is a huge challenge in the public sector. 
To build a culture and community around open source 
information it requires cross team collaboration; ensuring 
compliance with security and privacy laws, creating sufficient 
documentation, and anticipating reputational risks. In this session, 
Samantha Simpson presents some best practices on operationalizing 
standards like handling sensitive data, providing clear documentation, 
and creating awareness.

We're looking for reviewers for the following books & videos.
