This is the most amazing part for me:

> Drupal users like Pfizer and the State of Georgia only allow Makers to apply in their vendor selection process.

I wonder how they managed to convince companies to add such a requirement, but it's amazing!

I could imagine a checkbox with something like "participates in the development of the Software" as a criterion for selecting vendors. I'm amazed they got it to be an absolute for a government body, I think it likely would not be legal in Europe.

It's pretty dirty. Yikes.
