Denmark to follow in the foot steps of Massachuchets on open standards. Half an hour ago the Danish Parliament, Folketinget voted on B 103 on introducing open standards in the state administration:
The short version: " To introduce and maintain a set of open standards from January 1st 2008 or if this is not possible as soon as it is technically possible". All voters, 113 voted in favor. This means that the Minister Of Science, Technology and Innovation has to make a law proposal at present it in the next session of Folketinget after the sommer vacation. This is a huge step forward for kompetition and interoperability in the software sector.
