Citat:Netherlands supports open standards and open source

Yesterday, the Tweede Kamer (Second Chamber) of the Dutch parliament adopted a plan to switch the country's public sector over to open standards. At the same time, authorities will be called upon to use open source software wherever possible. The 26-page paper from the Dutch Economics Ministry obligates governmental services to provide reasons why they need to continue to use proprietary solutions, such as operating systems or office suites from Microsoft, starting next April; next December, this duty will be imposed upon all public authorities. At the same time, authorities are required to come up with a strategy that includes a timeline for migration to open standards and free software.

Jok, nego ljudi nista ne naplacuju za softver pa su "nelojalna" konkurencija MS koji to naplacuje .

Znači M$ je počeo i laktovima da radi. Kao na fudbalskim utakmicama opštinske lige.

Znas kako, kada su u Minhenu (ako se ne varam) prelazili na Linux tada je Microsoftov potpredsednik isao tamo i imao odobrenje da im pokloni sve kopije XP, dakle da nista ne plate samo da ne idu na Linux. Tako da je od njih svasta moguce ocekivati, pa i da na sudu dokazuju da su pokradeni jer im nece da kupe softver. Izgleda da su dosta toga naucili ovde, jos da pocnu da potplacuju sudije ko kod nas na opstinskim ligama . Sve po zakonu .

An open letter to Steve Ballmer

Dear Steve,

Hi, this is François, from Mandriva.

I’m sure we are way too small for you to have heard of us. You know, we are one of these Linux company who is working hard to make its place in the market. We publish a Linux Distro, called Mandriva Linux. Mandriva Linux 2008, our last edition, has a pretty good review and we’re proud of it. You should try it, I’m sure you’d like it. We also happen to be one of the Linux companies that did not sign an agreement with your company (nobody’s perfect).

We recently closed a deal with the Nigerian Government. Maybe you heard about it, Steve. They were looking for an affordable hardware+software solution for their schools. The initial batch was 17,000 machines. We had a good deal to respond to their need: the Classmate PC from Intel, with a customized Mandriva Linux solution. We presented the solution to the local government, they liked the machine, they liked our system, they liked what we offered them, especially the fact that it was open, and that we could customize it for their country and so on.

Then, your people get in the game and the deal got more competitive. I would not say it got dirty, but someone could have said that. Your team fought and fought again the deal, but still the customer was happy with the CMPC and Mandriva.

We actually closed the deal, we took the order, we qualified the software, we got the machine shipped. To conclude, we did our job. And, the machine are being delivered right now.

Now, we hear a different story from the customer : “we shall pay for the Mandriva Software as agreed, but we shall replace it by Windows afterward.”

Wow! I’m impressed, Steve! What have you done to these guys to make them change their mind like this? It’s quite clear to me, and it will be to everyone. How do you call what you just did Steve? There is various names for it, I’m sure you know them.

Of course, I will keep fighting this one and the next one, and the next one. You have the money, the power, and maybe we have a different sense of ethics you and I, but I still believe that hard work, good technology and ethics can win too.

cheers

Mali off sa ovim otvorenima pismom Blejmeru iz M$-a, ali u suštini ima veze sa temom. Nadam se da će modovi ostaviti.

Pismo otprillike i pokazuje kako MS radi, jedini problem koji danas imaju je da nemaju posla sa Nigerijcima vec sa Holandsijom, a amo je malo drugaciji nacin odlucivanja pa "tradicionalan" nacin koji prolazi i kod nas neide .

Ko zna, možda će baš M$ preko nigerijaca da plati Mandrivi za uslugu. Nigerijce baš briga. Dobili su 17K mašina + verovatno Win za džabe (ili u pola cene).

Pričao mi je tip letos na moru, kako su predstavnici vlade Crne Gore otrčali u neki evropski grad da se tamo sretnu sa DeBilom Gejtsom, koji je gostovao na nekom seminaru. Cilj im je bio da zvanično obajve kako je vlada CG sa M$ sklopila ugovor o uvođenju informacionih tehnologija u državne institucije težak 1 milion dolara i da je u to lično bio uključen i Bili. I uspeli su. Našli su Bilija i to su posle prikazivali u vestima non-stop.

Drugo, posao pravljenja sistema za upravljanje dokumentima u podgoričkoj opštini dobila je kancelarija M$ iz Beograda. Možete misliti. Došli su i samo odštampali screenshots postojećih aplikacija. To su dalje trebali samo da prevedu u neki od M$ programskih jezika (VB ili C#). Naravno, sql baza će nadalje biti SQLServer.

p.s.

Tri najtanje knjige na svetu su:
Etiopski kuvar,
Bosanske mudrosti i
Crnogorski "Uradi sam".

[Off]
Ima ih četiri, a četvrta je "Srpski ratni uspesi". A umesto Etiopskog kuvara - "Slovenačka autokarta". Izvinjavam se na upadu, ali reko da malo izmamim osmeh... Nisam ništa loše mislio.

Što se tiče teme, slažem se da će ipak malko teže izaći na kraj sa Holanđanima, ipak su jedni od glavnih u EU i imaće podršku čitave EU, bar se nadam. A ako još neke države slede njihov primer, ode MS-u EU tržište, bar malo će se srozati...
