Open Source in the Governement


The Netherlands
is heading to more Open Source adoption with a with a policy !

Under the policy, approved Wednesday, government organizations will still be able to use proprietary software and formats, but will have to justify that decision under the principle of "adopt or explain" why not,

It's a really good example of what other governements should do ..

But then again .. we first need a governement :(

Too bad you weren't at Barcamp. Peter would have explained you all about the ODF directive that the belgian government (yes, the "old" one or even the one before that) adopted.
