Bij de keuze voor het open source maken van deze stemsoftware was het belangrijkste argument 'transparantie'. Een overheid die burgers een nieuwe faciliteit biedt om te stemmen, kan door openheid van zaken te geven over de werking van de software het gebruik daarvan wellicht stimuleren. Burgers zelf – of belangenorganisaties – kunnen zo controleren of de software echt datgene doet wat het zou moeten doen. Ook is het de bedoeling dat toekomstige ontwikkelingen aan deze software - die met overheidsgeld is gemaakt - beschikbaar blijven voor de overheid en andere belanghebbenden » url · https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_relicensing ...

  • Report for The Netherlands Ministry of Economic Affairs: “There are particular threats to the European ICT industry such as the current discussion on the patent on software. The mild regime of IP protection in the past has led to a very innovative and competitive software industry with low entry barriers. A software patent, which serves to protect inventions of a non-technical nature, could kill the high innovation rate.”46

    http://ec.europa.eu/competition/ecn/brief/04_2010/com_ho.pdf • European Commission appoints new Hearing Officer for Competition Cases 🇳🇱» As of 16 September 2010, Prof. Dr. Wouter P.J. Wils has joined Michael Albers as Hearing Officer for competition cases. The latter was appointed as Hearing Officer in 2008. Both Hearing Officers are invested by the Commission with independent decision-making powers, are not members of the Directorate General for Competition and report directly to the Commissioner for Competition, Joaquín Almunia. European Commission Vice President and Commissioner for Competition Joaquin Almunia, said: "I am pleased that the Commission has appointed a senior official with such strong credentials for the job. Given his outstanding experience in competition enforcement both inside and outside the Commission, independent thinking as an academic and well known expertise in procedural law matters, Mr. Wils, together with his colleague Michael Albers, will make a significant contribution to maintaining the highest standards of procedural fairness in our cases." Mr. Wils was a Member of the Commission's Legal Service from 1994 until his appointment as Hearing Officer. He was educated both as an economist and as a lawyer at Louvain, Utrecht and Harvard, and is a former referendaire of Advocate General Van Gerven at the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg. As a member of the Legal Service, he has represented the Commission in more than 300 cases before the European Courts and the EFTA Court. He is a Visiting Professor at King’s College London and is the author of a variety of legal and economic publications.
