Dear Friends, An important milestone secured in France.
Best wishes, Sunil ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: *Frederic Couchet* <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> Date: Tue, Jul 9, 2013 at 1:00 PM Subject: [iindep-hub] For the first time in France, the Parliament votes a legislation that gives priority to Free Software To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Hello, The French Parliament just wrote into law the first instance of Free Software priority in a public service, by adopting the Bill on Higher Education and Research. April, after extensively contributing to the debate, especially welcomes this vote and congratulates Deputies and Senators for recognising the importance of Free Software in the Public Service for Higher Education, since it alone can ensure equal access to the future public service. April hopes that this first step will be followed by other legislation in favour of Free Software. It also thanks all the persons who mobilised and contacted the Parliament Members.
