Here's what I have so far. There is a point of contact near the end of the Navy memo.

Again, is there no process within the Navy to bring in such software? Much open source software is produced by volunteers, who wouldn't be able to run much in the way of compliance testing. I haven't noticed anyone on this list offering to do that. For starters, we'd have no idea what the requirements are.
