@EC_DIGIT @EC_OSPO, is this repository built specifically for EU institutions only, or can EU member states use it too? If they can, is it restricted to institutions only, or can it be used by, for example, scientists working on projects financed by grants?

@EC_OSPO, I asked because I've noticed a trend where some scientists (at least here in Lithuania) will get a grant to produce a piece of open-source software, build it, make it public, claim it to be open-source, but not take the final step of actually publishing the source code for anyone and everyone to be able to access it in a convenient manner. It feels like this is sometimes even intentional, in order to make sure that only companies they happen to also work for/with benefit.Having a clear requirement to publish all source code and data in a forge not directly under their own control would be beneficial for everyone, in my opinion, so I was wondering if https://code.europa.eu could be that independent forge. But, I guess, not now at least?
