I like it. And any OSS licence model is better than closed IMO. Let's see how it shakes out.

The opensource community needs a worldwide Parliamentarian Group for Digital Sustainability (Parldigi) liks Switzerland has. A group that collects money to lobby for opensource wherever and whenever it can. It should further build a global network with projects and governments to allow analysing and proposing solutions to existing governmental IT problems by using opensource.

If we could get something like this going with worldwide engagement, I'm sure Public Money Public Code could become the standard.

The FSF? Is that the one led by the dude who eats his toenails? The one that won't compromise and is opensource or nothing? The one that doesn't have any translations? If so, then that ain't it cuz.

Parldigi was able to compromise to reach a part of their goals and get something this large and important into legislation.

Yes, that autist that's done more in 40 years than anyone else in the world.

The one that doesn't have any translations

Seems to have some translations:

What is your proposal for a "worldwide" Parliamentary Group? Do we wait to establish a World Parliament, along with a World Government, or is there something we could do in the meantime?
