FLOSSWorld

Funded by the EU, FLOSSWorld is a new project to promote global collaboration relating to Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS). FLOSSWorld launched earlier this month. It will run for two years and involves 17 partners from 12 EU countries. Partners will all share 660,000EUR, from the European Union's 6th Framework Research programme. The project aims to enable research and policy development at a global level and facilitate further collaboration between the EU and developing countries in this area.

So, finally, open source software gets the attention of European leaders.
