What exactly do you believe the government cares about? I don't see why the govt. wouldn't want to run the best software possible at the lowest cost (as long as their cousin can still get a job in their department). And I'm confused as to the last sentence, as though this discussion has taken up so much of our time is troubling to you. Really, if this is wasting your time, you can ignore it and stop reading. I was figuring that by considering all viewpoints and expertise of the list members, that we might all learn something and gain a firm and educated view on how legislation and policy should go. I would hope the issue is as carefully considered by the government and does in fact take up some of their time. A lot of them certainly aren't too busy with anything more important.
