Hi ,
@Neechalkaran
True . Point taken .
But , the larger question is trying to showcase exceptions as examples .It
can be explicitly stated in the legistation that strategic codes would not
be devolved . An example of such an policy note would be
http://meity.gov.in/writereaddata/files/policy_on_adoption_of_oss.pdf
which , though , not having an one on one mapping to our scenario , clearly
says that -
<Quote >However, in certain specialised domains where OSS solutions meeting
essential functional requirements may not be available or in case of urgent
/ strategic need to deploy CSS based solutions or lack of expertise (skill
set) in identified technologies, the concerned Government Organization may
consider exceptions, with sufficient justification
<unquote>
Similarly , we could ask for a legislation (again emphasising legislation
in the place of policy )which excludes particular nature of software or
softwares developed by particular institutions .
FYI , NASA has a public open source repo where it uploads its non-mission
critical resources .

Even ISRO has released open licence complaint data (not source code )

I would say that's not the case with India and some states .
1)At all India level we have a policy on adaptation of open standards ,
(link provided above)
2)Regards to Ph.d thesis we have the institutional framework of Shodhganga
which via the "The UGC Notification (Minimum Standards & Procedure for
Award of M.Phil. / Ph.D Degree, Regulation, 2016) dated 5th May 2016"
mandates submission of electronic version of theses and dissertations by
the researchers in universities with an aim to facilitate open access to
Indian theses and dissertations to the academic community world-wide.
http://shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in/
3)In TamilNadu we have come up wiht the policy note in the last budget
discussion which explicitly mentions "creative commons" licence .
While the institutional framework for these are available , the pressure by
a vigilant citizenry is required to get these things done on ground .

Dear Indic Wikimedians,
As you are all aware, WMF and CIS-A2K have come together in a
partnership with Google to launch a pilot project to address local
online knowledge content gaps in India. In order to engage and support
active Wikipedia volunteers to produce valuable new content in local
Indian languages, we are conducting a needs assessment survey. The aim
of this survey is to understand the needs of the Indic Wikimedia
community and ascertaining their infrastructure requirements that we can
fulfill during the course of this project. Please help us by
participating in the survey below:
https://goo.gl/forms/Pinthff3OumSn1Ke2
We request you to share this survey across your communities, user groups
and network of fellow Indic Wikimedians.
Please do share your valuable suggestions with us and sign up on the
meta page below:

Subject: INVITATION FOR SOFTWARE FREEDOM DAY
To: tshrinivasan(a)gmail.com
Hello Community,
Free Software Foundation Tamil Nadu (FSFTN) is an organisation working
towards the spreading of the use and awareness of Free (as in freedom)
software and technologies throughout the State. The entirely
volunteer-run organisation comprises people from all walks of life,
including academics, students, IT professionals and developers.
FSFTN regularly conducts workshops on Linux-based technology, free and
open source programming languages, open hardware and other related
topics across the State. One of its major annual events is Software
Freedom Day (SFD). On the occasion of SFD, stalls are put up
explaining what free software is, how to learn and use cutting-edge
technology and the possibilities in the future.
This year FSFTN is organising SFD in Chennai on Oct 8th 2017 at
Loyola-ICAM College of Engineering and Technology, Chennai. We from
FSFTN request all the GLUGs, Tech Communities, Free Software
Communities and Volunteer driven communities like Mozilla, Wikipedia,
etc. to be part of this event and contribute by Exhibiting Stalls or
Providing your valuable presence for the event on that day. We request
you to be a part of the event and together we could spread the essence
of Software Freedom to the students and the general public.
Regards,
Free Software Foundation Tamilnadu
