In a time of increasing regulation of #OSS, how can an open source company leverage the strengths of an Open Source Foundation without getting caught in potential traps?

This is what Gaël Blondelle and @flzara.bsky.social addressed earlier this week at the Open Source Founders Summit.

Petite question pour @projetarcadie.com si tu as qqs minutes.
Pourquoi le PM (actuel voire le précédent) prend-il la responsabilité d'utiliser le 49.3 ? Ne pourrait-il pas laisser la main au parlement et la responsabilité d'un budget refusé ?
