Rafael MartÃn Espada, CIO, Government of Extremadura. Spain Says
Open Source Is Critical For Development
,----[ Quote ]
| The use of open source software is
| fundamental to a sustainable and
| technologically independent development, says
| Rafael MartÃn Espada, Director General of
| ICT, regional government of Extremadura.
|
| "We have a long list of recommendations that
| we are willing to share with all
| administrations that are considering open
| source", Espada said last week Thursday at a
| seminar in Brussels.
|
| The region for instance advises to take
| fiscal measures to promote the creation of
| open source business. "Make its adoption a
| priority for public administrations. Use open
| source when you are organising electronic
| polls, stress its use in your development
| strategy and build demo centres to increase
| the trust in this type of software."
