Let me come back to something I mentioned earlier, which is to say first and foremost that I think we have a lot of work to do to marshal those arguments in a succinct and comprehensive way. And that's where I'm very excited about the work that the folks at National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration are doing to make the case much more systematically in collaboration with the academic community, to put numbers on how much value is being generated by the work they're doing to create transparency. That has not been done yet across the board, which is why what you're hearing from us are stories and anecdotes of how this is unfolding.
This work is all extraordinarily new. But I think the stories that I would tell would be not only about the tales from government but also about work that's happened and the surprising developments that we've seen in the technology community, that one never would have expected the kinds of collaborations you see that are generating real business value through the development of things like the Linux operating system and other open-source tools that are, through collaboration, engendering real economic value, the development, again, of open collaboration and peer production and open innovation in businesses.
There are countless case studies now that are beginning to come out of places like Harvard Business School that are identifying the real value and wealth that's being generated by companies that are collaborating with their customers to develop better products or improve their customer service. So there is good data in the private sector, and we're beginning to gather it in the public sector, but really just at the beginning.
