The city of Stockholm will be doing a technical evaluation of Novell's
Linux Desktop which includes OpenOffice. The evaluation should be
finished in March.
The thought is to phase it (OOo ? or Novell's Linux ?) in on new machines.
The article (in Swedish) is a bit unclear about the difference between the
desktop operating system and the applications and seems to be confusing
the two.

The article does mention savings, but only in the context of licensing
fees. There does seem to be some implied confusion on the part of the
author at the end regarding open formats and open source. And without
that distinction a quote taken out of context at the end suggests,
incorrectly, only ideological reasons behind the decision.
