They're moving back from Linux to Windows+Office! What's happening there?
http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/No-more-desktop-Linux-systems-in-the-German-Foreign-Office-1191122.html
The Foreign Office launched a modernisation process in 2010, one
component of which was the pursuit of a new IT strategy moving away
from open source software and towards "standardised proprietary client
solutions" as used in other ministries. Specifically, this means a
return to Windows XP, to be upgraded at some point to Windows 7,
*Office 2010* and Outlook. According to the government, this will not
give rise to any immediate costs, indeed, they expect introduction of
these "standardised software products" to produce "efficiency gains".
