In response to the Microsoft sponsored 'Software Choice' campagn - see the 
story at 'The Register'  http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/26616.html

Bruce Perens has put together a site called

What is at stake is  the princpal that governments should not be forcing their 
citizens into using proprietary software just because they choose to/have 
been bribed to/ do so.

Microsoft is obviously dead scared of movements to do the 'common sense' thing 
of running government with relaiable and self maintainable 'Open Source'  
software. This should make sense to all governments but is particularly 
relivant to countries like Peru that dont have billions of dollars to spare 
for donations to BillG!
