The Center of Open Source & Government

Interesting directory targeted at government IT officials. It's my theory that government will be the most influencial force behind adopting Open Source solutions - particularly Asian governments. They don't want to pay big license fee's to foreign software companies.

Doesn't it also make sense that all the software the government pays to be created should be made available as open source? It's been paid for using the taxpayers money so doesn't everyone own it? Of course, I doubt anyone would really want to look at it but there could be some interesting bits.
