Hello Bruno, let me say that I find your post interesting but some what not surprising.
This may only be my feeling but let me say that regarding the Portuguese government a post is not enough you should be going for something like Boycott PortugueseGovernment. This country is a playground for all big companies like Microsof, Cisco, etc. and people mentality is that it is only good if it has a commercial value.
Take the example of the new netbook for usage on schools and the fact that the government sign a contract with microsof for the development of new software without even allowing other Portuguese companies to deal cheaper prizes.
Definitely all his situations should be put out.
