[InfraCosts] Project Plan (public) - Google Docs

"In order to support decision making within the open infrastructure landscape, we are proposing three distinct areas of development and exploration.    This is designed to examine the current state of publicly available fiscal data (funding information for OI projects as well as their spending information) as well as the “hidden” or under-reported costs of open infrastructure.   Areas of focus:   Development of a framework and criteria to assess & describe open infrastructure; An exploration and audit of the status-quo of public fiscal & organizational data; Investigation into the “hidden” costs of operating open infrastructures & points of resource scarcity. ..."
