Open source battles Microsoft in Ukraine (NewsForge)
NewsForge
looks at new legislation concerning open-source software in the Ukraine.
"A battle for software supremacy within the public and private sectors of
Ukraine has begun. Recently, the Ukrainian Parliament registered a "project
of law" (the equivalent of a bill in U.S. terms) that may radically alter the
manner in which the Ukrainian government procures software. If adopted, it
will require government agencies, along with all state-owned or
state-controlled companies, to give preference to open source software."
