============================
Penso che il fatto che il piu' importante produttore di tecnologia
informatica per l'utenza desktop sia passato a una delle molte forme di
UN*X (e pure parzialmente open source) dovrebbe essere per noi motivo di
giubilo. Penso anche che le diatribe non ci portano da nessuna parte, e che
dobbiamo sviluppare una cultura che ci permetta di raggiungere il
pubblico, non pensare a far sentire piu' fighi i già convinti.
Detto ciò, ecco una bella notizia con cui aprire l'anno. Portero' una
bottiglia per festeggiare venerdi'.
All'ordine del giorno, per me:
- i corsi a mondolfo
- OOo alla Fondazione et al., quando come e chi (Romano, batti un colpo)
- le FAQ

>Subject: Israeli government suspends purchases of Microsoft software
>
>The Israeli government has become the latest national government to seek
>open-source alternatives to Microsoft's productivity software, citing cost
>as a major motivating factor. "The move with Microsoft was a purely economic
>decision," says a Finance Ministry spokeswoman. "The Israeli government will
>not be purchasing new products from Microsoft, but will implement its
>contract to secure existing systems. On a policy level, the government is
>committed to expanding computer use. We want open source technology to
>spread, so more people will be able to afford computers." The Finance
>Ministry has been working with Sun Microsystems and IBM to create a Hebrew
>language version of OpenOffice software, an open-source alternative to
>Microsoft Office. Some federal agencies in France, China and Germany, as
>well as the city government in Munich, have switched over to Linux-based
>servers and individual workstations. Other governments exploring open source
>alternatives include those in Britain, Brazil, Japan, South Korea, China and
>Russia. Governments account for about 10% of global information technology
>spending, according to IDC. [AP/*USA Today*, 31 Dec 2003; NewsScan Daily, 31
