I'd love to see a lobbying effort, if possible, to get government
grants for open source. Basically, just like artists get grants to
do artwork, open source developers or even companies who shell out
open source would receive grants. No idea if any of this has been
attempted with any degree of success but it hones into the very life
blood of Linux and free software.

My issue with the previous efforts, especially things like
certification, is that none of it helps Linux and open source
software. It's all parasitic. Would be refreshing to see something
more symbiotic.
