HP has called on developers to pitch in and help improve the open source management tools it made available to the community last week.

The governance tools, originally built for internal use at HP, are designed to simplify the management of open source licences within organisations. HP has also launched two Web sites, Fossology and FossBazaar, aimed at building communities around the governance tools. "Foss" refers to Free and Open Source Software.

The software released last week is just a starting point, however, according to Christine Martino, HP's vice president of Linux and open source.
