I've just added this entry to gnu.bib:

@TechReport{Schmitz:2002:POS,
  author =       "Patrice-Emmanuel Schmitz and S{\'e}bastien Castiaux",
  title =        "Pooling Open Source Software: An {IDA} Feasibility
                 Study: Interchange of Data between Administrations",
  type =         "Technical report",
  institution =  "European Commission, DG Enterprise",
  pages =        "147",
  month =        jun,
  year =         "2002",
  bibdate =      "Tue Jul 09 08:14:39 2002",
  URL =          "http://europa.eu.int/ISPO/ida/export/files/en/1115.pdf",
  acknowledgement = ack-nhfb,
  annote =       "This is an extensive study of various open source
                 software licensing models, with recommendations for
                 official European Community adoption as alternatives to
                 proprietary software.",
}

Because the report surveys a number of different open-source software
licenses, and discusses issues of redistribution of possibly-modified
software, it may be useful to those of you who are rethinking the
LaTeX Project Public License (LPPL).

The report is long, but most of the relevant material is found in the
first 60 pages, buried in bureaucratese.
