The CDS Collaboratory was originally created to harmonize the work that the Socratic Grid (www.socraticgrid.org) and OpenCDS (www.opencds.org) communities were doing in open source. As both use the Apache 2.0 License (www.apache.org) it made sense to align and collaborate rather than divide an already small and over tasked community. Similarly, when HSPC was formed, it again made sense to re-organize as the CDS Collaborative Working Group and align with the larger SOA Architecture envisioned by the consortium.
