There is an ComputerWeekly article about Free Software in the Italian public administration: http://www.computerweekly.com/news/4500256578/Free-software-gains-ground-in-the-Italian-public-administration
At the end there is a quote by Carlo: “There is no excuse. All public administrations must opt for free software or re-use whenever possible,” said Carlo Piana, Free Software Foundation Europe’s general counsel, who participated in the committee that advised on the guideline. “Now free software and re-use are the norm, proprietary software the exception. This is the most advanced affirmative action in Europe so far. I’m so proud that Italy leads the way, for once,” he added.
