How do we ensure that the #opensource components we build upon are also sustainably maintained?
@opensource organized a conference on Open Source Procurement today.
70% to 90% of all software contains open source components. 60% of those are run by 1 person. That's a fragile ecosystem.
With a purchasing volume of 116 billion euro, the Dutch gov can make an impact - if they reserve a portion of funding for open source projects in every procurement (MVOI).

@opensource shout-out to @kirschner , for his post about the 500 million euro that the German government spends each year (!) on Microsoft licensing, while asking how much #opensource we could have procured and developed with a fraction of that money. During @nlnet 's presentation.

Indeed, looks like a migration to the cloud while keeping the entire on-prem infrastructure.
