From the about page:
The DARPA Open Catalog is a list of DARPA-sponsored open source software products and related publications. Each resource link shown on this site links back to information about each project, including links to the code repository and software license information.
This site reorganizes the resources of the Open Catalog (specifically the XDATA program) in a way that is easily sortable based on language, project or team. More information about XDATA’s open source software toolkits and peer-reviewed publications can be found on the DARPA Open Catalog, located at http://www.darpa.mil/OpenCatalog/.

A great public service for anyone interested in DARPA XDATA projects.
You could view this as encouragement to donate time to government hackathons.
I disagree.
Donating services to an organization that pays for IT and then accepts crap results, encourages poor IT management.
