<li>Sollen öffentliche Verwaltungen ihre IT schrittweise auf Freie und Open-Source-Software umstellen?</li>

</ul>

<p>CDU/CSU und FDP haben ihre Antwort als "neutral" klassifiziert und in einer sehr ähnlichen Weise geantwortet. Leider werden klare Aussagen vermieden und so letztlich der Status Quo zementiert. So sei der verstärkte Einsatz Freier Software einerseits zwar vorgesehen, aber auf der anderen Seite seien zahlreiche Aspekte mit einem derartigen Einsatz abzuwägen. Diese Aspekte sind jedoch teilweise inhaltlich undifferenziert. Beispielsweise werden darunter Funktionalität oder Usability aufgeführt, was wiederum in keinem Zusammenhang mit der verwendeten Lizenz steht. Auf die Frage über die Migration bestehender IT-Systeme bevorzugt die CDU/CSU eine Einzelfallentscheidung, während die FDP unsere Frage inhaltlich schlicht umgeht und damit nicht unbeantwortet lässt. </p>

<p>Obwohl die SPD ihre Antwort ebenfalls als "neutral" klassifiziert hat, unterstützt sie die Verwendung und Entwicklung Freier Software in öffentlichen Verwaltungen und Bildungseinrichtungen, um "innovative Unternehmensgründungen im regionalen Markt zu unterstützen". Als Unterstützer der Verwendung und Entwicklung Freier Software durch öffentliche Gelder positionieren sich schließlich Bündnis 90/Grüne und Die Linke. Die Grünen betrachten Freie Software als einen "Eckpfeiler für sichere und zukunftsfähige IT-Systeme", und auch die Linken zeigen ihre volle Unterstützung, soweit dem keine sicherheitstechnische oder arbeitstechnische Gründe entgegenstehen.</p>

<p newsteaser="yes">Even as digital issues are becoming more important every day, the election coverage does not give them the attention they deserve. That is why Koalition Freies Wissen created "Digital-O-Mat", an online tool for voter information for the German federal election of 2017. The FSFE asked the participating partis for their positions on Free Software. While CDU/CSU (Christian Democrats), SPD (Social Democrats) and FDP (Free Democrats) avoid clear statements and thus ultimately cement the status quo, the Greens and the Left present themselves as supporters of the deployment and public development of Free Software.</p>

<p>For Digital-O-Mat, FSFE asked the participating parties the following questions:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>If software is financed or co-financed by the public sector, should there be no regulation regarding its licensing, e.g. a Free Software licence?</li>
|
||||
<li>Should public administrations gradually migrate their IT systems to Free and Open Source software?</li>

<p>CDU/CSU and FDP marked their position as "neutral" and answered in a very similar fashion. Unfortunately, these parties still do not understand the significance of Free Software and try to avoid clear statements. According to them, while they do consider the use of Free Software, this should be weighed against many other aspects. They cite functionality and usability, even though they have no relation to the used licence. When asked about the migration of existing IT systems, CDU/CSU prefer decision making on a case-by-case basis, while FDP dodged our question. </p>

<p>CDU/CSU (conservatives) and FDP (liberals) marked their position as "neutral" and answered in a very similar fashion. Unfortunately, these parties avoid making a clear stance and ultimately confirm the status quo. On one hand, they do consider the use of Free Software, on the other hand, so they say, there are multiple other aspects to consider weigh in. However, they list functionality and usability for example, even though they have no relation to the licence in use. When asked about the migration of existing IT systems, CDU/CSU prefer decision making on a case-by-case basis, while FDP dodged our question. </p>

<p>Though SPD also marked their answer as "neutral", they support they do support the deployment and development in public administrations and educational institutions, "to foster the creation of innovative businesses in the local market". The Left and the Greens clearly position themselves as supporters of both deployment and public funding of Free Software. The Greens view Free Software as a "cornerstone for secure and future-proof IT systems", and the also fully support it, "as long as there are no concerns regarding security or operation." </p>
