IT talks about the US government's effort to improve the code base for
the open source software that "they" are using. Also it reminds me that
the White House and other parts of the government are moving more and
more of its work to open source software.
This is a good thing for marketing. If the US government is now
embracing the open source community, maybe LibreOffice can use that in
its marketing campaign. It would be a great thing to see if we can get
the White House to endorse LibreOffice efforts, and maybe start using it
withing their agencies.
So does anyone know a way to get the White House, or the proper people
in the US government, to look at LibreOffice's efforts in the open
source community and to review the software package? The article seems
to be a possible boost to the several packages it named that the White
House and other agencies use. What would such an article do for
LibreOffice if the White House started to use LibreOffice?
