When it comes to open source and the open web, Mozilla is once again putting its money where its mouth is. The Mozilla Open Source Support program (MOSS for short) recently awarded $539,000 (USD) in grants to several open source projects.
Those projects are Ushahidi (a platform for collecting and sharing local information), RiseUp (developers of secure digital tools for activists), Phaser (an HTML5 gaming engine), and mod_md (an Apache module for deploying and securing websites). According to TechCrunch, the next phase of MOSS will focus less on specific projects and more “on individual regions—starting with India”.
