Democrats target Microsoft | |

THE Australian Democrats are trying to embarrass governments into supporting legislation mandating open source software, by asking questions in parliament about how much departments spend on Microsoft products. And Democrats in NSW, the ACT and federal parliament are drafting open source preference legislation along the lines of upper house member Ian Gilfillan's Bill in South Australia, as part of a campaign to lift the profile of the software. SA Democrat upper house member Mr Gilfillan has led the way with his private member's Bill. | ||
