| Better Defaults, which are the focus of
| the most recent Renaissance status
| presentation, which you can munch on if

A police report
,----[ Quote ]
| Last Friday the Minister of Justice
| revealed a report regarding the Danish
| police's finances. The background is that
| the police in Denmark has been spending
| much more money over the last many years,
| than they where allowed to in the budget.
|
| [...]
|
| The opposition parties are now asking the
| Minister, why there crystal clear
| recommendations of F/OSS and
| OpenOffice.org has been erased from the
| official version.

Important recommendations omitted
,----[ Quote ]
| Why was important recommendations from
| McKinsey omitted in the report 'A
| professional and well driven police' to
| the Parliament?
|
| From the report from McKinsey with the
| financial analyzes:
|
| The section 'Use of cheaper software':
|
| That in stead (of Microsoft Office)
| works with a scenario with a shift to
| OpenOffice.org or Star Office, as the
| product is called, when delivered from
| SUN (Oracle). By using a well know
| supplier such as SUN(Oracle), that now
| also develops and supports MySQL as
| well as Star Office, it will be
| assured that support is available with
| the quality the police needs. (p.
| 83-84)
|
| A shift to OpenOffice.org or Star Office
| will according to McKinsey result in
| savings around 100 mio DKK untill 2017.
