Hi Matt,

Thanks for your query. I'm trying to hunt down the specific research this is from, but you'll see this same Gartner figure cited in this March 27, 2009 Forbes.com article (see last paragraph):

Hope that helps,
Stephanie

Dear OSFA Staff:

We at SFLC are working on a research paper, and we were hoping that you
might be able to point us to the sources for some information in your
FAQ (http://opensourceforamerica.org/faq). Specifically, can you let me
know where I can find the Gartner estimate referenced in "What does the
market look like for open source software?" - I had trouble finding this
source. Also, are there specific sources for the list of agencies which
have adopted OSS (in "What is the history of open source in government?")?

Any quick help you can give, especially with respect to the Gartner
source, would me much appreciated!

All my best,
