CPTech's Thiru in Geneva tells me that the UNESCO has published how it intends to go about implementing the Action Plan for "Access to information and knowledge", which was designed at the World Summit on the Information Society.
The document makes a nice read, for a change from the usually rather drab UN stuff. Predictably, I particularly liked this passage:
e) Encourage research and promote awareness among all stakeholders of
the possibilities offered by different software models, and the means
of their creation, including proprietary, open-source and free
software, in order to increase competition, freedom of choice and
affordability, and to enable all stakeholders to evaluate which
solution best meets their requirements.
