Public Money
Public Money, Public Code - A campaign for releasing publicly financed software as Free Software
Présentation
Why is software created using taxpayers’ money not released as Free Software? We want legislation requiring that publicly financed software developed for the public sector be made publicly available under a Free and Open Source Software licence. If it is public money, it should be public code as well. Code paid by the people should be available to the people!
The code of this website is Free Software. You're welcome to contribute! | Translation status page
Applications paid by the public should be available for everyone.
“Implement legislation requiring that publicly financed software developed for the public sector be made publicly available under a Free and Open Source Software licence.”
239 organisations and 39250 individuals already support this call for action by signing our open letter. You can help us make a much bigger impact by signing it, too! We will hand over all signatures to representatives all over Europe that are debating software freedom in public administration.
The following organisations support our open letter. If your organisation is also interested in joining the call for Public Code, please contact us.
