Public money, public code! Make it FOSS or get rekt!

Yes, FOSS and then build a local service industry around it. This really would be the way for Europe to become independent and build up a proper tech sector.

When are they gonna make EurOS? It would also solve the debate between 2 euro vs 2 euros.

I simply love the Dutchs for their OpenSource-Mindset! I am pretty confident, that they will take the right decisions.

Personally i would like to See the Dutchs taking the lead in EU-Digital-Decision-Making.
