it's not like we suddenly have these tools, at least tex has been around
for a while; so governments suddenly 'becoming aware' always makes me
wonder (they jo-jo anyway between solutions)
even if e.g. luatex is used in some places that doesn't mean that it
translates in interest (or dev support) ... it's seen as a given
that said: given the current political landcape and how it evolves (just
look at various european elections) i wonder if i should even look at
all these initiatives and policies .. in the end it's also (either or
not national) big-tech that benefits most from this, not those who
invested their 'free' time in development etc on the long term
tex-timescale
It would be nice to have at least an English translation..
Anyway , looking for some tex related thing

ODF und PDF/UA als Dokumentenformate,
just look at history (over your own lifetime) ... how long will that UA
stuff last (it is already a mess)
think of it like this: if we could do something 10 years ago, and no one
was interested, why take interest serious now
using tex is very much about persistence, individual interest in control
and quality over typesetting, to some extend (single users, few person
orgaizations) involvement, curiosity, experimenting, adapting, so that
is what we should focus on
not yet, but after a bit of searching

Better than nothing, I should say.
anyone could slap together something like that ... tex has been around
for ages and always kind of adapted ... all that wrapper stuff and these
fashions come and go ... different worlds imo
