Calls for an open source governement

Wow, and about time too. Here's a news flash. There are now calls for governments across the world to use more open source software to cut costs and be more open to everyone. What a great idea. Maybe it will be a way to reduce the monopolies that proprietary software has. 

In truth it will probably also mean that proprietary software gets more open and the companies that own these systems also buy more open source companies to keep their market share.
