Great ! My submission of the story got rejected so I'm hoping it was because it was already in the queue. I sent it to Linux Today and Linux Weekly news and the Register as well. Hopefully it'll get some wider coverage. Jeremy. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] EU Linux migration document. -- German Gvt. "Migration Guide"
Linux migration document. * To: samba at sambadotorg, samba-technical at sambadotorg * Subject: Linux migration document. * From: Jeremy Allison * Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2003 23:20:58 + * Cc: jra at sambadotorg Hi all, If you're looking at a Windows server to Linux & Samba migration (and let's face it, who isn't nowadays :-), the EU (god bless their little cotton socks :-) has published a wonderful migration how-to document here : http://europa.eu.int/ISPO/ida/jsps/index.jsp?fuseAction=showDocument&parent=news&documentID=1647 Cheers, Jeremy. Hi, Jeremy, hi, all, I saw your posting regarding this document only today. While we are at it, please also take a look at the "Migration Guide", published by the German Ministery of the Interior. This originally was published in German only. What is hardly known is that this document now has an English translation. I never read a news item about in on one of the relevant forums, like Slashdot or LinuxToday. Maybo someone with "connections" may be ablt to place a news item? I think that document is even more thorough than the EU one: while it also evaluates a "Continuing Migration" path, going from WinNT to 2K/XP, it gives big room to a "Replacing Migration", going from NT to Linux/FLOSS/Samba et.al. http://www.kbst.bund.de/Anlage303777/pdf_datei.pdf (Yes -- despite of its strange name this *is* the English translation of the Migration Guide. Oh, and even if the PDF is saying it was produced from MS Windows with the help of PDFmaker -- be assured that the original document was written with the help of OpenOffice.org. vlendec should be able to confirm this, since he is also one of the authors... );-) Have a look at that one too, please, and spread the Gospel that it will soon be available as a book (in German). If there is demand from other countries, I would imagine that the English translation would also hit the bookstores some time soon. A personal comment: I had a quick look at the EU migration document 2 days ago. I think it is very useful, but less than it could be, because it is very much biased towards RedHat/Ximian/GNOME and, unfortunately largely ignores SuSE/Mandrake/KDE.
