Amsterdam Poised To Go Open Source

Open source test successful

28 September 2007 - A test with open source software has been successful and there are no technical impediments to introducing such software in the entire municipal organisation, Amsterdam announced this week at a meeting organised by the Ministry of the Interior.

“The 10,000 departmental PCs can switch to open source software within five years”, spokesperson Stephan Wildeboer told Trouw. “Amsterdam’s city council will receive a proposal to that effect in December. The switch can be carried out at no additional costs. Some investments will have to be made, but these will be offset because we no longer will have to pay for licenses for Windows, Microsoft Office and for example Oracle programmes”.
