CMS Critic’s Post

It’s true: the Swiss don’t miss on #opensource While several European countries have been making gains with the adoption of open source software (OSS), Switzerland’s EMBAG legislation is a milestone – taking OSS to a new level. What are the risks and rewards? On CMS Critic, I talked to Mathias Bolt Lesniak – an open source evangelist affiliated with TYPO3 GmbH and the Open Website Alliance. We’ve spoken before about the opportunities and challenges with open source in the EU, and he has some keen observations about Switzerland’s bold step to mandate OSS for its public sector agencies. According to Mathias, Switzerland’s bold leadership on open source reflects a culture - and a long history – of democratic ideals. “Democracy is what I usually point to when I talk about the positive things open source can bring into countries.” It’s a great discussion about the evolution of OSS – and where things might be headed from here. Check it out: https://lnkd.in/eCy4HTdX
