Oregon's Open Source Bill Passess Committee Hearing

Cooper Stevenson writes "Oregon's Open Source Bill HB 2892 made it through the first General Government Committee hearing and is now scheduled for a work session. From here the committee will vote on the bill and, if it passes, will go to the Ways and Means Committee where it is expected to pass to the House floor for a vote. You may find the audio feed and the opponent's written testimony here. We are scanning and posting written testimony (especially the proponents for which there is plenty) as quickly as possible so check back in periodically."

All I know is I saw some kid outside sitting outside talking to it.

I heard it say that it's just a bill, yes it's only a bill, and as I stated before it's sitting on Capitol Hill. It went on to describe a long, long journey followed by a long, long wait and I believe it summarized its feeling by saying that it hoped and prayed that it will, but today it is still just a bill.

My assumption is that it wants to become a law, undoubtedly motivated by their fancier ribbons.
