Open Source

Overview

Kednos has a strong commitment to furthering and supporting OpenVMS open source software.  The pages in this section cover open source projects that Kednos has been involved.  In some cases this may mean hosting the development effort (e.g., MX), simply providing built software or as contributors to an externally hosted development effort.

If you have an open source package that you would like Kednos to host, please contact us at opensource@kednos.com and register your interest.  Be sure to include your details, a description of your software and its license requirements.
