We were not familiar with this story. Playing catch-up, and we'll be posting this to Mastodon as well as corporate-owned channels.
Public transport is too important not to expect that its code is open to inspection, if not licensed open source. Transport justice means supporting public mobility built with the same transparency and accessibility that we advocate for in open-source solutions.

  BTW: there was another talk at C3 this year, that might be of interest to you: https://media.ccc.de/v/38c3-transitous-offener-routingdienst-fr-ffentliche-verkehrsmittel (unfortunately it's in German, otherwise I would have posted it properly already.)
  It's about https://transitous.org/ I think there is some overlap with what you're doing so maybe there is some room for cross-pollination.
