Discussion 6: Open Source for America

Well, we all know the only way to get things done through our government is by lobbyists and coalitions. Looks like the Linux community has caught on, and have created the Open Source for America advocacy group [http://www.opensourceforamerica.org/]

Google around for it, see what you can find out. Which companies are involved in this coalition? What is their goal? Is this going to be beneficial for our economy? or harmful? What are your thoughts?
