Open Internet Stack: The EU Commission’s vague plans for open source

An internal paper gives some clues about the EU Commission's plans for open source policy in the future. An existing funding programme will continue under a new name and re-focus on commercial value. The document calls on the Commission to support open source in public administrations – and think about a new legal form. Many questions remain open.
