OSGeo signs the open letter for Public Money Public Code

OSGeo supports the open letter of the Public Money Public Code campaign 
of the Free Software Foundation Europe (fsfe).

The campaign postulates that publicly funded software has to be Free and 
Open Source Software.

OSGeo as a foundation that represents Open Source Software projects 
supports this initiative.

Some of our Local Chapters like FOSSGIS e.V. and Free Libre Open Source 
Software Kosova (FLOSSK) already.
