"....the current official U.S. DoD
policy[1]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Use_of_Free_and_Open_Source_Software_%28FOSS%29_in_the_U.S._Department_of_Defense#cite_note-stenbit-0>of
treating FOSS and proprietary
software <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proprietary_software> as equals."

does that make any sense?
