Open Source can Help India Save 10,000 crore, says IIM-B Study
,----[ Quote ]
| Even as the current economic climate has compelled the
| Indian government to go on the austerity drive, by asking
| its ministers to air travel by economy class â a more
| compelling option may lie in looking at replacing
| proprietary software with open source. A recent report
| titled, 'Economic Impact of Free and Open Source software â
| A Study in India', by a team at IIM-Bangalore, highlights
| several interesting insights, that show how by replacing
| just 50 percent of proprietary software with open source in
| desktops and servers, India can save close to Rs 10,000
| crore in 2010.
