What's in a Name?

Where did the Help Desk Project get its name? We're often asked what "COHO" stands for. It's actually not an acronym; it's a beautiful species of salmon known elsewhere as Silver Salmon, but called Coho in the Pacific Northwest.

"Government organizations have been keenly interested in collaborative software development much before the Internet, Linux and Open Source. The prospects of sharing the cost was always desirable, but seldom practical. Open Source projects like Apache, Eclipse or Mozilla are examples of successful collaboratives. The time is right for government organizations to take a close look at the Open Source model for software collaboration."
