The manifesto sure sounds like it's coming from a (security) consultant, not a developer.
> Recognize the open-source code consumption's real risks.
> Establish open-source software consumption policies and test them against risk tolerance and other objectives.
> Adopt and refine tooling, best practices, and processes for tracking and enhancing the security of consumed OSS.
Rather than writing manifesto's I recommend getting your hands dirty in the trenches. Show, don't tell.
As the lobbying seems to be aimed at "software developer organizations" consuming Open Source, I was expecting a recommendation along the lines of: contribute either money or time sustaining the project you rely on.
