Has the State finally come to its senses? Please peruse this doc
closely. Does it have teeth? Will people read it?
It certainly seems to be the real deal. Section 1.2, page 3 says "... an
investigation of potential open source software solutions should be
conducted prior to issuing a bid for proprietary software solutions,
..." This could be huge for Open Sourcerers.
Can someone convert the damn PDF image of the doc to a text format. That
should make for easier dissemination and discussion. (This is not a
droll/troll ;-) )
Note that the Euros are aware of this:
