DeepRoot Linux supports this initiative whole heartedly. The Government is the primary decision making authority and they should be very cautious in espousing standards and policies. Their implicit (and many a time explicit) support towards proprietary software doesn't augur well for the end-user in the long run. We need to educate (if need be) the Government and its policies towards being technology neutral. Rather they should be strongly pro-FOSS. We are with you on this. This is a great initiative by FOSSCOMM.
