União Europeia promove software livre


On 19 April 2010, during an Informal meeting of the EU Member States Ministers responsible for Information Society and the European Commissioner for Digital Agenda, Neelie Kroes, it was agreed that EU governments should use open standards and interoperable systems to deliver eGovernment services and that the reuse of public sector information should be promoted.

Among the 29 points agreed on this occasion, the ministers committed to consider to "embed innovation and cost effectiveness into eGovernment through the systematic promotion of open standards and interoperable systems, development of EU wide eAuthentication schemes and proactive development of eInvoicing, eProcurement and pre-commercial procurement."

They also stated they would promote the reuse of public sector data, expecting this to result in user-driven innovations to government services. This should make governments more efficient, reduce the administrative burden and help to lower carbon emissions.

Open standards are an important element in many open source applications, as these are freely accessible.
