This is a very sad state of affairs, therefore I would like to bring your attention to a petition towards open sourcing all scientific (and generally tax-paid) software: https://publiccode.eu https://publiccode.eu

This is a great initiative.It should not be limited to software: research papers, databases and many other things that are currently either not available at all or are behind pay walls should be released.

  For research papers, there's also this open access initiative which is gaining support: https://www.coalition-s.org/ https://www.coalition-s.org/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plan_S https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plan_S

Does this call for avionics software for the F-22 (and similar taxpayer funded software) to be open sourced?

  There should be definitely some exceptions from this legislation as usually.
