Open Source Alliance urges EU to mandate open source in procurement law

Original: 🇪🇺 Die EU-Kommission muss im neuen EU-Vergaberecht Open Source als Default für Software verankern, denn die EU-Kommissio

The Open Source Business Alliance is calling on the European Commission to make open source the default for software in the EU's upcoming procurement law reform. The group argues that since the Commission has championed digital sovereignty, this commitment must be reflected in procurement rules, starting with priority for open source software.

Why now: The EU is revising its procurement rules, and advocates are pushing to embed digital sovereignty goals into the legislation.
