Global Policies On Open Source Software

  • 2006
    Apr 1, 2006

    This is the third update to our Open Source Policies table. The attached table tracks explicit governmental policies concerning the use of open source software that have been publicly reported in the press or other media. As with the previous efforts, we do not include a decision by a government to use or purchase open source software, as this may simply be a decision based on price or product rather than the result of a policy decision.
