You should sign!

Several national ICT-bodies urge you to sign their petition that will be handed over the European Commission.
What are you signing for? For freedom, for open access to research findings and results: "The following actions could be taken at the European level: (i) Establish a European policy mandating published articles arising from EC-funded research to be available after a given time period in open access archives, and (ii) Explore with Member States and with European research and academic associations whether and how such policies and open repositories could be implemented."
