Hyphenate "open-source", when it is an adjective, everywhere.

As per this discussion.

Feedback on outline: include policy frameworks that can be conducive to DPGs

Section on Procurement: would suggest also including policy frameworks that can be conducive to DPGs - example from India for instance, that requires any public procurement to show that no open source alternative is available if a proprietary one is procured

Make key recommendations easier to access

In the community and ecosystem section (and possibly other sections), we should make it easier to find the key recommendations. We might pull them forward to the beginning of the doc or sections. We might also try to find a way to typeset "Key Recommendation" boxes to make them visually distinct.

See PR 23 for the genesis of this issue.

Include benefits for governments

Would be good to include an overview of benefits to governments - I am also missing something in particular on considerations around data ownership and management. We have heard that this in particular can be a disadvantage of proprietary solutions.

Adoptability Assessment: Sample Evaluation Score Sheet

Just a quick question/feedback on the adoptability assessment, is there a rough framework or assessment template in terms of scoring for choosing a product/RFP evaluation criteria, i.e., recommended weighting /score on the assessment for the various criteria mentioned in the assessment? This could be a valuable resource as a baseline evaluation criteria when choosing products.

Style Guide:

Consider Trademark guide (and maybe other things) from UNICEF Innovation Inventory as a resource.

PR #80 in the UNICEF Innovation Inventory repository contains some trademark advice that we should review and consider adding as a resource, once it's merged.

Also, there may be other things in the Inventory that deserve a closer look!

Cannot "make" PDF

In my local MacOS environment, after having installed MacTex (which provides the LaTEX system that pandoc depends on), I get the following error when running make to generate the PDF:

Error producing PDF.
! Argument of \paragraph has an extra }.
<inserted text> 
                \par 
l.1636 \ttl@extract\paragraph

make: *** [pdf] Error 43

Before I attempt to troubleshoot this, it would be good to understand the details of the system where @kfogel has run this successfully.

Style Guide: do not capitalize digital public goods

Anywhere where "digital public goods" are mentioned, it should not be capitalized.

The only exception to this rule is the Digital Public Goods Alliance.
