EU eGovernment push 'threatens Microsoft supremacy'
,----[ Quote ]
| EU telecoms ministers took an important step
| towards diluting the market dominance of
| Microsoft's Office software on Monday (19
| April) when they agreed to roll out online
| services using more interoperable document
| formats, according to Brussels-based
| competition lawyers.
|
| [...]
|
| Following Monday's meeting, governments
| across Europe are expected to follow Denmark
| and Norway's lead by choosing open software
| standards for eGovernment services, like the
| freely-available Open Document Format (ODF).
|
| Should their promise materialise, it could
| pose a threat to the 95% market share held
| by Microsoft applications, legal sources
| told EurActiv.
