A comment on Ask HN: Does anyone investigate open source packages before using in prod?. Parent comment
Yes, but this is typically pretty low overhead. And when it's not, it usually means there is some issue that has to be addressed anyway.
> I'm guessing you work at a pretty large tech company.
I did once, but right now "we" is a tiny startup (we're using Elm and Erlang.)
> I wonder if there might be the opportunity for a body to review & approve packages on behalf of many companies.
Ideally, that's what Free/Open Source Software would be, eh?
In the old days there were "sysadmins", System Administrators, who handled a lot of this sort of thing.
