that being said, i would reiterate that a more practical bill would have been to enforce the use of interoperable protocols and (file format) standards. that would, in my opinion, level the playing field between competing open source and proprietary technologies. kaya lang naman nalo-lock-in ang mundo sa proprietary software (e.g. Windows, MS Office) ay dahil sa proprietary "standards" and formats like the MS Office document formats.

We should not be too hasty in concluding that one who writes against our cause has been paid to do so. I find it common that if one side gets to a writer first and was convincing (assuming he has not already made his own conclusions), the second side has to work doubly hard to explain itself. Let's just be patient in explaining our side to journalists. Greetings, Obet
