In the spirit of free/open source software, why don't we instead each contribute our own opinion to the discussion rather than having a concerted VAGUE effort? I'll start. Here's my blog post on the subject which I've forwarded on to one of my representatives, David Zuckerman (who co-sponsored the bill): http://bradley-holt.blogspot.com/2010/01/open-source-and-open-standards-bill.html I'm sure there are plenty of different opinions on the subject, even within VAGUE. If this is something you think is important then contact your representatives and let them know. Thanks, Bradley
