If I may, the Europe Challenge 'vanity video' put together by the city of 
Trentino, the host for 2016.

A lot of smart and inspired students and SMEs using open source to deliver 
'living' results.

These are world-class quality web apps that others can learn from and extend!

There is only one way out of here if we want to survive, one world working in 
each other's interest.

Now in its 5th year!

[OSGeo-Discuss] Position paper for endorsement of Free Software and Open Standards in Horizon 2020

[Jeff McKenna]

Happy new year to my OSGeo family.

The Free Software Foundation Europe (fsfe) just released an interesting 
whitepaper, that we should all take a moment to read.  It's very forward 
thinking, right down to the idea of creating Open Science prizes (sound 
familiar?).  Well done.
