Internships, possible staff exchange between NSIs to exchange and implement best practices for open source
Peer review of code between NSIs
Promote certain tool(s) in the ESS for packaging and documenting OSS

Provide appropriate training to familiarise with this new way of thinking and learn about best practices and benefits of using OSS for non OSS native workforce, including management executives
Form a group to continue the discussion on the above mentioned topics and organise a workshop
to exchange best practices
to define the requirements and conditions for possible code review
to create security guidelines and minimum requirements for sharing code
to create a curated list of open source tools to be promoted for official statistics
