Not entirely true

There are a number of errors in this article:

1. the Dutch government is led by the Christian-democrats (cda), in coalition with labour (pvda) and a moderate right-wing christian party (christenunie)

2. the plan has only passed approval by the second chamber (like the house of commons) but has yet to pass in the first chamber (house of lords)

3. the plan does make open standards mandatory for the government, but not open source; only when there are equally qualified open and closed source products (like that's ever going to happen), open source is preferred.
