Eric Goldman alerts us to the interesting bit of news that Google has sued the US government -- specifically the Department of the Interior, for not seriously considering Google Apps when it put out a Request for Quotation (RFQ) to handle its messaging needs.

Google is making the argument that this is "unduly restrictive of competition," and it seems like they've got a decent argument there.
