For those that said Nay
How is your crow? As far as the time to complete the migration, makes sense in that there are a lot of proprietary items that need to be converted over to an open standard. But Munich is the key to the whole adoption of Linux on a large scale. They are the pioneers into a brave free new open world. To them Bravo Zulu!

And then ".. Norway's second-largest city, Bergen, announced it would be following in Munich's footsteps and opting to run Linux." So it begins in Europe, and as always the United States will be the lone country to not conform to world wide standards.

Just about every single nation in the world uses the 24 hour clock, not the US. Just about every nation in the world with the exceptions of England and the US, use the metric system... 100% As always the US will be behind the world in everything except, greed, corruption, military strength and ignorance.

And yes I am a voting, VFW card carrying member, disabled Veteran of the US Navy. I call it like I see it.
