Let the ball roll :-)

In 2017: About 13 million pages of declassified documents from the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) have been [released online](https://www.cia.gov/library/readingr...rogram-archive). [From the BBC](http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-38663522):

The records include UFO sightings. [...] The move came after lengthy efforts from freedom of information advocates and a lawsuit against the CIA. The full archive is made up of almost 800,000 files. They had previously only been accessible at the National Archives in Maryland. The trove includes the papers of Henry Kissinger, who served as secretary of state under presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, as well as several hundred thousand pages of intelligence analysis and science research and development.

Well, that is unexpected. But instead on congratulating EA (not in this life), I like to say kudos to all opensource enthusiasts behind enemy lines at EA, in making this happen.

Thanks, EA!

Thanks EA for what? Kudos to who? EA is not choosing a OSS roadmap for the future (give thanks to Valve for that), but it's just hoping to draw more users to its games. Understandable, not bad ad all, but nothing OSS community should be grateful for.

I think we can thank 1 guy from EA who is behind C&C ramester project, just one guy who love C&C and is passionate about it.

This is such great news. I never liked the first C&C that much, but hopefully they will sometime soon help us out in the same way with Tiberian Sun, which I lost massive amounts of time playing back then.

Or super duper missiles.

And copying the Star Fleet Flag!
