Avui s'ha votat definitivament la confirmaci� del contracte de Munich [1].
-- The city's 82-member council, after more than a year of review, will vote tomorrow on a proposal to change to Linux, according to an agenda for the meeting. It would be the biggest PC defection to Linux ever, said Brendan Barnicle, an analyst at Pacific Crest Securities in Portland, Oregon. -- D'altra banda la ciutat de Bergen a Noruega consolidar� servidors utilitzant m�quines d'IBM amb Linux [2] En una entrevista [3] el CTO de Bergen es mostra molest per com s'ha presentat el projecte a alguns diaris. M'ha semblat interessant la resposta pel que fa a la gesti� del canvi en aquests casos: -- Has anything about the process surprised you? We haven't had any unpleasant surprises, other than the press coverage. Despite some press reports in the Norwegian papers, we are not chucking out Windows. For our employees used to working on Windows and Office, to open the paper and see incorrect reports saying that we were terminating use of Windows caused quite a bit of discussion. We have already paid for Windows, so it would not be a good economic decision to jump about. Sooner or later, our Office platform will reach the end of its life, and we will re-evaluate what we do. We will look at a Linux desktop next year, but we have to test it, and it would mean that the teachers would have to use both the pupil's Linux desktop and their own Windows desktops, which might make life hard for them. Sooner or later we will review that, but there are no decisions there as yet. -- Salut! -- Ernest Frigola <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://bogomips.net [1] http://quote.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000085&sid=aB1pwheIk3PQ&refer=europe [2] http://www.suse.com/en/company/press/press_releases/archive04/bergen.html [3] http://insight.zdnet.co.uk/software/0,39020463,39157746,00.htm ---------------------------------------------------------------- Podeu consultar els arxius d'aquesta llista o canviar la vostra subscripci� a http://www.softcatala.org/llistes/ ----------------------------------------------------------------
