MySpace, Yahoo! and Google give OpenSocial a big boost E-mail

The OpenSocial Foundation will be an independent non-profit entity with a formal intellectual property and governance framework; related assets will be assigned to the new organization by July 1, 2008. The foundation "will provide transparency and operational guidelines around technology, documentation, intellectual property, and other issues related to the evolution of the OpenSocial platform, while also ensuring all stakeholders share influence over its future direction."

The OpenSocial Foundation website at www.opensocial.org will serve as the portal for the community to find information about OpenSocial and the foundation as they evolve. Developers and website owners can already visit www.opensocial.org "for the latest specifications, links to other resources, and the opportunity to get involved."

Yahoo!, MySpace, and Google say their engineers will continue to work together and with the OpenSocial community to further advance the specification through the new foundation.
