TR: Ministry of Justice and law courts consider open source desktop
,----[ Quote ]
| Turkey's ministry of Justice, all of its
| institutions and all law courts are
| considering to move or partly move to a
| complete open source desktop, according to
| judge Cengiz Tanrikulu. That migration would
| complete the implementation of an
| information system built on open source
| software, the National Judiciary Informatics
| System (UYAP, Ulusal Yargi AÄi Projesi).
|
| Judge Tanrikulu, involved in the development
| of UYAP, said the government's law offices
| are considering a move to Pardus, a Linux
| distribution primarily developed by Turkey's
| Research Institute of Electronics and
| Cryptology. "We are already using OpenOffice
| on all of the desktops. We began using
| OpenOffice in 2007 and it has helped us to
| save billions."
|
| The judge presented UYAP in Amsterdam in a
| workshop organised by NOiV, the Dutch
| government project on open standards and
| open source, on Wednesday.
|
| Development of UYAP started in 2000 with a
| document management system, built using open
| source components. It offers access to legal
| documents to civil workers at the ministry,
| at law courts, police, prisons, prosecution,
| Home Office and to the Land Registry. The
| system can also be accessed by any mobile
| phone.
