Reading through an open tender from Naalakkersuisut/the Government of
Greenland, I find this absolute requirement:
"The Agency for Education must have full rights of use and unlimited
access to the complete source code, including documentation and
dependencies, for the purposes of operation, maintenance, and further
development.
There must be no technical or legal restrictions that prevent the system
from being continued by another supplier."
It doesn't say in so many words that the software they want must be free
software, but ... any company who makes free software can very easily
comply with that requirement.
I wish that kind of tender requirements were more common. Of course, it
would be even better if they asked directly for free software.
