In the list provided above, I could clearly see two distinctions. Technical Issues and Non-Technical Issues. Technical issues included standardization, well defined objectives and methods to achieve them. Non technical included policy issues, awareness issues, patent and copyright issues (legal), educational issues, etc.
I think, technical issues will be the purview of the experts' team(s) trusted upon with some work. While meeting political parties or the mediapersons to convince them of the importance to accept IT and FOSS as the harbingers of change, social prosperity, economic development and values of freedom, we'd better only concentrate on the non-technical issues. Once they are convinced of this and make it a priority on their agenda-list, we can move ahead with other tasks. Of course, the professional/technical community needs to be prepared and doing enough homework on the technical issues as well, my suggestion is only in regards to how we should approach the political parties. Looking for more suggestions.
