On: Ask HN: How would you fix the healthcare.gov website?

[feyn]

The same advice I would give the designers of the Titanic after it sunk: you really should have thought more about this ahead of time.

In all seriousness: Open source it. Tell the dev's to put it on Github, and let the global development community figure out what the hell is going on.

I like the first part but not the idea of open sourcing it. Why does the American government want "the global development community" involved? That makes no sense to me.
