The "transparency" of the Drupal project was one of the government's big objections.

Just as a quick note by a lurker: various organs of the Italian government (Finance Ministery but not only) judged the "open" is OS projects to be a very good element for the usual reasons addressed by OS evangelists, also about security issues. It's a priority, to them, also the active participation in community: giving help when they can to receive help when they need (yep: most utilitary, not so idealistic - but pragmatic and correct).
