Summary: The City of Munich, famous for dropping Windows
for a Linux OS, has chosen open-source software to handle mail and
calendar for its staff.
The authority running the German city of Munich, famous for ditching Windows in favour of a home-grown Linux OS, has chosen an open-source software suite to handle email and calendar for its staff.
The City of Munich has chosen to use the Kolab Enterprise groupware software to manage mail, calendar, task, and contact lists.
The decision comes soon after the council completed a nine year
project to migrate more than 14,800 of its PCs from Windows to Limux, a
custom build of Ubuntu — a choice the project lead described as not
being about saving money, but about freedom from lock-in.
Limux project lead Peter Hofmann signalled at the time that the city
of Munich would do its best not to let itself become too dependent on a
single technology vendor again.
"We saw from the start that if you're only relying on one contributor
to supply your operating system, your office system and your
infrastructure, you're stuck with it," he said.
The switch to Kolab is part of the council's MigMak project and is planned to be complete by the end of 2014, according to tender documents. The migration will be managed by Kolab partner ESG.
The council's Limux and remaining Windows PCs — which it has kept for
compatibility reasons — will run Kolab Enterprise 13's desktop and web
client.
Kolab Enterprise 13 was released in December for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, with support for other platforms to be added later.
The groupware suite from Kolab Systems AG in Switzerland, was
originally developed for the German Federal Office for Information
Security.
Even though Munich's decision to leave Windows wasn't financially
motivated, Munich said the move to open source software saved it more
than €10m.
HP produced a report on behalf of Microsoft that claimed the shift to
Limux and OpenOffice would cost Munich three times more than official
figures – although Munich pointed out the report was based on a number
of flawed assumptions, such as significantly overestimating the number
of staff working on the project.
However, Limux project lead Hofmann admitted shifting away from
Windows had been a difficult process, as the council wrestled with
reconfiguring an infrastructure littered with proprietary formats and
protocols to play nicely with LiMux and free software.

“What we found in countries like Brazil and those in South East Asia is that theft and

As a result, Firefox is rolling out remote wipe capabilities into its OS either in its
next release or the consequential one, though Fowler promised it by the end of the year.

personal and very unique to that individual.”

UK citizens to Microsoft: Oi. We WANT ODF as our doc standard • The Channel
Open source zealots beat down on OOXML as consultation continues
Even if Microsoft bosses collectively whistledAlways Look on the Bright Side of Life they'd still struggle to drown
out people backing Cabinet Office proposals to adopt the Open Document
Format as the official standard for UK.gov missives.
The good folk of Blighty have until 26 February to make their position known as part of an open consultation.

Microsoft asks pals to help KILL UK gov's Open Document Format dreamBig 20 cash hoovers: Slurp. Floop. Darn. Sluurrrp. Where's our public sector IT dosh?UK picks Open Document Format for all government filesMicrosoft roasted for Office 2010 standards FAILODF's doomed mission to break into Microsoft Office"By
using a format like ODF, you gain the benefits of future-proofing the
data, supporting open standard for everyone, saving tens or hundreds of
millions on needless software licensing, opening the way to improve
software removing a single point of failure, [and] reducing reliance on
huge companies which abuse their market position," said JJ Beard.
Microsoft last week wrote to channel partners via the Partner Blog asking them to respond to draft proposals; not that it was telling them to vote in favour of ODF or Open XML. Oh no.
It
did, however, say the ODF route will "likely... increase costs, cause
dissatisfaction amongst citizens and businesses, add complexity to the
process of dealing with government and negatively impact some suppliers
to government".
The people at Microsoft initially branded the
government position as "ill conceived" but this draft of the blog was
not officially signed off, Microsoft's PRs tell us, and the post was
duly updated to remove those words.
Some 34 comments have been
posted below the Partner Blog, but it seems the detractors flooded this
forum too, with those in favour of open source branding OOXML as not
being very, er, open.
"I agree we should be heard," said one user
under the handle “UK Subject”. "Let's email in and say how wonderful it
is that the UK is embracing openness and freedom by ditching the
proprietary and closed OOXML."
The XML documents Microsoft
developed since 2007 as default standard for Office, but various people
on both forums dismissed it: "ODF is a vendor neutral standard… its
universally supported".
The open source brigade didn't have it
entirely all their own way, with some mentioning costs of training and
document conversion in moving to ODF, but they were rapidly shot down
and corrected.
In the war of words, it is 1-0 to the open source zealots
