i have a question to ask, let's say that this bill gets passed into law, how sure are we that it is going to be implemented to the fullest? we are a country with too many laws but the problem lies in the one enforcing it.
I know of at least one law that has an oversight committee in Congress: the E-commerce Law. There could be something similar in the FOSS bill. And then, Of Curse, since this is *still* a government by, for, and of the people, we can assert our rights as citizens and point out shortcomings. The IE *requirement* of a government Web site, for instance, is an aberration, FOSS bill or not. We should complain loudly about that and not wait for the passing of the bill. -- Daniel O.
