The interesting part isn't just the software itself, it's what this signals about public trust. When governments adopt open source, it's usually not about ideology - it's about avoiding vendor lock-in and having real control over their infrastructure.

For the rest of us, that's actually good news. Government backing means more maintenance resources, more auditors, and products that actually stick around instead of disappearing when a startup runs out of money.
