George Mason University received a $388,568 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084), effective July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The award funds a two-day community-wide convening designed to strengthen secure and viable open-source software ecosystems in the era of artificial intelligence (AI). The convening will assemble participants from academia, industry, government, nonprofit organizations, and open-source communities to identify shared priorities and develop practical strategies for improving long-term stewardship of open-source ecosystems as AI-assisted development tools, AI agents, and related emerging technologies reshape software creation, maintenance, and deployment. The convening will employ facilitated plenary discussions, structured breakout sessions, and hands-on working activities to examine technical, organizational, legal, and governance dimensions of secure open-source ecosystems. Key topics include software supply-chain security, distributed development models, community governance structures, licensing frameworks, interoperability standards, cross-sector coordination mechanisms, and implications of AI-enabled tools for open-source development and maintenance. The project directly supports NSF's Pathways to Enable Open-Source Ecosystems (POSE) program goals and aligns with broader federal Safe-OSE efforts by synthesizing expertise across cybersecurity, research practice, and policy to identify gaps and develop actionable directions for securing and sustaining open-source infrastructure that increasingly underpins scientific discovery, critical infrastructure, government services, and the digital economy.Federal Grant Award Summary
