Ten of the biggest Dutch municipalities say 'enough!' to Microsoft
,----[ Quote ]
| Therefore, the conclusion is, open source in the Netherlands goes
| from the bottom to the top. It might have to do with influence: It
| is far easier for companies like Microsoft to influence/lobby the
| 'one' federal government, than it is to influence about 460
| different municipalities. Slowly and a bit hesitant, but surely -
| and rather unstoppable, open source and open standards are making
| its way in the Dutch government.
