Seems pretty US-centric. Governments outside the US are doing great things with open source too. The entire UK government website is open source, for example:

https://github.com/alphagov

View on HN

They are! You can see them listed on the homepage as well as the community page, which lists organizations by country: http://government.github.com/community/

If you see any that are missing, please do open a pull request: https://github.com/github/government.github.com

Ah - missed that page. My bad.

What's US-centric about it? I don't see a reference to anywhere but Canada.

The word "government" being used to mean "government(s) in the USA."

There are lots of non-US examples here: http://government.github.com/community/
