BC Developers' Policy and Guideline Documents - All the information a BC Gvt employee could ever want about GitHub
The BCGov GitHub Organization represents an ongoing effort to enable public & private sector, as well as citizen developers, the ability to collaborate on, leverage and integrate technology assets outside of the typical government procurement/contract model.
This repo's content is focused on providing information, examples and guidelines to facilitate the creation and governance of BCGov Open Source projects. We don't want to duplicate the good work GitHub has done with their own online guides. Our focus is giving BC Government people and projects the info they need to get started on GitHub while remaining compliant with BC standards and policies.
The document content, templates and guides are organized into two categories ("Employee Guide" and "How To"). These are best accessed using the contents section provided in the README files:
June 2015: We are at the "Beta" delivery phase of the project and we are currently collecting material to form the content of this repository. Right now we are helping some early adopter projects get existing code up on GitHub. If are asking yourself "I wonder if my project code could be added to GitHub?" there is a great resource on OSS-Watch that walks you through an [openness rating checklist] (http://oss-watch.ac.uk/apps/openness/)
