"Many computing projects, such as Microsoft’s open source
VSCode editor, would officially fall in the loose Ovio12 categories of
‘industry-innovation-infrastructure’ or ‘reduced-inequal-
ity’ but do not align with conventional notions of OSS4SG (e.g.,
VSCode does create infrastructure for industry and could be used in
a social good context, and since it is free it could be seen as reduc-
ing inequality, but it is not inherently or essentially a social good
project by more conventional definitions). Informally, almost every
OSS project could be seen reducing inequality (since OSS is free to
download) and/or as providing innovative infrastructure (since it
is software), so those tags are not informative in this context. As a
result, we followed best practices and used DPGA criteria to help determine social good scoping more precisely; DPGA
makes use of the United Nation’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals
which have been found to more closely align with what computing
practitioners mean by the term “social good”" based on the content, how can I respond to the comment: it is unclear why the “reduced- inequality” type is excluded from the data.
