European Commission Will Increase Use of Open Source Software

Posted by Soulskill on Saturday March 28, 2015 @01:26AM from the leading-by-example dept.

jrepin writes: The European Commission has updated its strategy for internal use of Open Source Software. The Commission, which is already using open source for many of its key ICT services and software solutions, will further increase the role of this type of software internally. The renewed strategy puts a special emphasis on procurement, contribution to open source software projects, and providing more of the software developed within the Commission as open source.
