I love the irony in the choice of names.  "The Initiative for Software
Choice" is asking the DOD to think twice before choosing software they
can't sell to the DOD. :-)

Hi,

Here's another side to the open-source vs. closed-source security
debate.  The computer industry establishmnet (ie., Microsoft, Intel, and
Cisco) is throwing around lobbying dollars in Washington, DC in an
attempt to "win" this debate at the DOD.
