Did you miss it? Check out @OpenForumEurope's latest report, where myself and co-authors call for an Sovereign Tech Fund. With the absence of funding in the ongoing negotiations, it's important that the EU funds OSS maintenance and security work.

I kick off the morning reviewing this document: ": A Study on the Economic, Legal, and Political Feasibility of an EU Sovereign Tech Fund"
A 42,000 words proposal to create a EU-wide version of the German Sovereign Tech Fund/Agency with a 350 million € fund over seven years. To fund critical open source infrastructure.
It even features the now mandatory xkcd 2347 image. https://xkcd.com/2347/
Color me positive.
