im being asked to respond to a case study regarding the govt's
(possible) adoption of FOSS. i know a couple of a few days back that
there was a discussion regarding an open source bill. i went thru the
thread trying to get some pointers in responding to this survey,
however, i need further info. being a late adopter of OSS, im far from
being an authority to answer this questions. thank you in advance for
your time:
1. What can you comment of the following problems and issues arising in
the adoption of the policies that supports the FOSS.
a. Unclear intellectual property rights
b. Unfairness to private sector and skewing of market forces
c. Migration cost
d. Incompatibility with existing systems and institutional resistance
e. Lack of available support and service providers or support for new
hardware
f. Technology transfer arrangements
2. What present law & policies justify the government use and adoption
of FOSS?
3. Why should the Government adopt and support FOSS?
thanks!
