>We need better ways to fund Open Source projects.
Yeah well, at least in the EU, we could start funding the awesome OSS projects that already exist around here, like KDE, OpenSUSE, and many more, with some of those billions of taxpayer money the EU has promised for "innovation", instead of shoving them in the pockets of publicly traded 100-year-old corporations like Siemens, VW, Daimler, T-Systems, Dassault-Systemes, etc.
But of course, that would only work if those funds were actually for innovation and not a hidden form of wealth transfer and corporate charity.
