News about limux migration project

The city of Munich today announced the next step in its LiMux migration project. The original press release, which unfortunately doesn't seem to be available in English, can be found at http://www.muenchen.de/Rathaus/dir/limux/ueberblick/175149/windowsabloesung.html

In short: The first official release of the base client has been finished and will be deployed to a first set of workstations by the end of the year, apart from the "beta testers" that already worked with LiMux. After that, more workstations will follow. OpenOffice.org is being used as the office suite within LiMux.
