Let me comment on this Andrew.

In this case, I don't think "they" exist. At least I have never met "them" in the EP.

If "they" would exist, it would mean that there is a group of people promoting Free Software in the EP in parallel with EPFSUG, without telling the folks* in EPFSUG about it.

Actually, here, I think that "they" are rather "us" than "them", just as I think that
ACTA was not stopped by "them" - it was killed by us.

But speaking of "them", I can assure you that
the EP Bureau's software procurement is not prepared by us:

But they will buy it with our tax money.
