Why is software that is programmed with taxpayers’ money not released as Free Software? We want legislation requiring that publicly financed software developed for public sector must be made publicly available under a Free and Open Source Software licence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuVUzg6x2yo

@bandMIT, Apache and BSD would be inadequate because modified/improved software derived from free software could be proprietary and would therefore no longer benefit the community and would also eliminate the other benefits. GPL, AGPL or similar licences should be as @aral has already said@fsfe
