Excited for the publication of this report.
Whether FLOSS can deliver on it's transformative process at all, or whether that promise turns out to be an empty husk that serves to legitimate continued extraction remains to be seen. The answer doesn't depend on the goodwill of those that benefit from the status quo, but on the organizing power of those who do not.
Who gets to participate, who gets resourced and who gets to shape the future of FLOSS?
