EC report advises open source for Europe (ZDNet)
[Posted July 8, 2002 by corbet]
ZDNet
looks at the
European Commission report recommending greater governmental use of
open source software. "
The study does not say that European
governments should use off-the-shelf open-source software from companies
such as Red Hat, but rather focuses on specialized software produced
in-house by public authorities. Such software is typically used for the
administration of roads, hospitals and public health, education, tax
payment and recovery, justice, and territory management."
