NL: Dutch police will study moving to open source
,----[ Quote ]
| The Dutch police will start investigating how to increase its use of open
| standards and open source software. A plan to implement the two types of
| software should be ready early next year, just in time to meet the
| government's deadline.
|
| The police's IT analysis is mentioned in a letter from Guusje ter Horst, the
| Interior Minister, to the Dutch parliament, published on 1 July. "If
| possible, the Dutch police force will make use of the experiences of other
| organisations. Procurements will then be carried out according to this
| implementation plan. I will ensure that the cabinet's policy on open
| standards is implemented and that a policy on using open source will be
| developed."

| The Dutch ministries of Economic Affairs (EZ) and Education, Culture &
