Last June the former Italian Minister of Reform and Innovations in Public Administration, Luigi Nicolais, announced the creation of the second Italian Open Source Commission, and last week the commission coordinated by professor Angelo Raffaele Meo released a first draft of the report (Italian).
The Neapolitean coffee is finished. Any more coffee? Valpopando (LYJR)
The commission, composed of sixteen members and supported by the National Center for Information Technology in Public Administration and the Department of Innovation, would have probably needed more time to define procurement policies for IT Public procurement of open source software.
Will also the next Italian government take good care of open source?
Provided that the first Open Source Commission (http://www.cnipa.gov.it/site/_files/dm_021031.pdf) was established by the previous Minister of Innovation and Technologies, Mr. Stanca, and provided that Mr. Stanca will probably be the new Minister, I can guess that he will “play” some more on that issue!
Let’s hope.
