There are many points in the discussion. Technical or not they are valid and some of them come from people who had quite some experience dealing with GNU/Linux distributions and some also interact with Govt organisations.
What you are suggesting is a good cause but no one is that hopeful ( as far as I can see ) . Next thing you need to do is contact the Boss people and get their website up. No its not some conspiracy theory that their site is down. I remember that CDAC hosts it somewhere in India which means it has many chances of going down ( no disrespect to Indian hosts ) . I remember they were also down two years back for no reason. Go to IRC , if you are lucky at Freenode #boss-nrcfoss was the channel of communication maybe you can find them. Yes the IT policy "recommends" open source and they will twist it such a way and call it "open standards" , it has been happening since many years and I don't think it would change such easily as there are big businesses lobbying for big contracts and this govt is really gaga over big business.
