It appears some of the 18F crew are behind this. I'm interested to see what unfolds in this repo.

Actually it would appear to be the Defense Digital Service

The contact in the license points to a dds.mil address

Forgive my ignorance. I thought 18F and Digital Services were interlinked.

DDS spun out of US Digital Service and DDS members go through the USDS hiring pipeline.

18F, USDS, and the Presidential Innovation Fellowships are philosophically related, but organizationally and functionally distinct.

The Defense Digital Service and the US Digital Service are distinct organizations: http://www.defenseone.com/technology/2015/11/meet-head-penta...

I'm from 18F, and I'm now a "contributor", but only because they accepted my pull requests. :)
