    Music to my ears. Tax money should go to open source projects.

      And all tax funded tech should be open source.

        This should also include tech used on and on the behalf of tax payers.

          Sounds good in principle but realistically i can’t see it happening because there will be disputes about how much each state contributes, government politics will be brought into it, and I guess they’ll be expectations of some form of ownership and exclusions. Sounds like a nightmare and a hindrance for a project.
