Even the 'worst' open government plans include open source
,----[ Quote ]
| An independent group released its rankings
| for U.S. government agencies' open
| government plans and said Treasury,
| Defense, Management and Budget, Energy and
| Justice had the weakest plans of the lot.
|
| NASA came out smelling like a rose, with
| the strongest-ranked open government plan,
| followed by the EPA and HUD, according to
| the rankings by OpenTheGovernment.org.
|
| [...]
|
| Some agencies have said they plan to
| revisit their plans based on the group's
| evaluation, so OpenTheGovernment.org will
| re-evaluate them in June. It'll be
| interesting to see how the use of open
| source continues to evolve in open
| government.

The spy who came in from the code

| If you were going to pick an adjective to
| describe the Central Intelligence Agency,
| "open" wouldn't immediately spring to mind.
| But according to Carmen Medina, who
| recently retired from the CIA and will
| speak at Gov 2.0 Expo, openness is just
| what the agency needs.

Does Quebec Hate Free Software?
,----[ Quote ]
| What's particularly disturbing here is that
| it looks like the regional government doesn't
| want anyone to question why it is going with
| proprietary software, and not giving free
| software a fair chance - that's doubly wrong.
