To Branden:
Do you feel this should be a function of Debian, SPI or both? Should this
effort be in cooperation with OSSI [1] or separate from it? What about
other country's governments? Do you have specific ideas here or is this
just a general notion of what you'd like to do?
To the other candidates:
Do you have ideas about/interest in these issues? Is it Debian's role to
play, or someone else's?
Thanks,
Dale
