The Conservative party in Great Britain is almost certain to win the coming political election. They have just published their digital manifesto. Here is a few things that I liked:
1) They want open source to have the same chances to win government contracts.
2) They want open standards to prevent lock-ins.
3) They want to protect intellectual property, but not if it conflict with new business models.
4) They want open data.
The Norwegian Labor party is acting similar to the English Labour party in the way that they try to hinder open source, open standards and open data as good as they can. Hopefully they start to update themselves soon.
