Hey Aarnio,

sorry that I have overridden your decision to take Erik offlist. Please 
(obviously) feel free to communicate private information directly, I did 
not mean to challenge your decision but feel that it would also be 
valuable for the users to learn more about the FSFE initiative and 
activities.


Erik,

we are currently in the process of graduating Oskari as an OSGeo project 
and also from this aspect your request is very timely. I also believe 
that Oskari is not only a valuable project to highlight how public money 
is well invested into software but also as an exemplary well managed 
Free Software project.


Thanks,
Arnulf

> Hi all,
>
> I am Erik from the Free Software Foundation Europe. We have been launching our Public Money? Public Code! campaign last year in the we demand that publicly financed software developed for the public sector is made publicly available under a Free and Open Source Software licence: https://publiccode.eu/
>
> Now we like to bring new attention to our demands with a series of interviews.
> The idea is in particular to highlight good examples so other decision-takers and administrations can see the benefit and practice of using, developing and spreading Free Software.
>
> I found Oskari because it was 2nd prize winner in the Cross border category at the Share&Reuse Conference. After checking a while your homepage, I come to the conclusion that Oskari could be very interesting to highlight as a positive example of publicly financed software.
>
> To do so, I am looking for an interview partner. It would be awesome to get someone who is in charge for oskari from the government for this. As I could not find any other contact-adress except this list, I thought to ask here to find a suitable person. If you have any contact for me, please let me know.
>
> Be aware that I am not member of the list, so please include my address in any reply.

> Thank you very much,
>     Erik
