"EU Open Source Strategy" - watch the numbers:

* the Chips Act 2.0 text contains zero mentions of open-source. The term "open foundry" means "production capacity [open] to unrelated undertakings".

* the Chips Act 2.0 Annex contains zero mentions of open-silicon, zero mentions of open PDK, two mentions of open-source EDA (next to onboarding "major EDA tool providers").

Weren't there better options at a fraction of the budget? See F-Si roadmap:

Why did you replace "demand" by "encourage" "to use and facilitate the reuse of open standards and components released under an open source licence" at last moment ? You completely weakened the purpose of it. And why did you limit it to cloud and AI software?
