    Dutch government shows interest in Forgejo

    The Dutch government has expressed interest in using Forgejo for its national code platform. Currently, they rely on GitHub, but they are looking for alternatives for storing, collaborating and building government code. This is part of the Open Source Program Office (OSPo)‘s efforts to regain digital sovereignty. Throughout the month, a call also took place between a representative from the office and some Forgejo contributors.

    Moreover, it is pleasing to hear that the office expressed interest in exploring ways to contribute back to the project.

    Now this, this I like. If the dutch government also invests in federation, that would be amazing. First they have to tie the knot of course…
