$11 million dollars is pocket change to a national government. Not ideal, but as a project to end reliance on a US entity, it’s an investment in the future.
And it’s much cheaper than paying Microsoft.
I’ve met individuals willing to pay $11 million to stop using teams.
A small price to pay for salvation.
I’d call it a fuckin bargain even
Shit a decent sized org pays that much in licensing to use it.
It says how much it costs but how much will be saved in the end?
Probably 11 badrillion. When MS goes under in AI pop, the Swiss will be the only people that still have their mails.
Its only an experiment of the Bundeskanzlei with 3000 real employees. I am very hopeful, I heard an Interview with the one responsible, he seems very eager to really test it and give it a good chance, but also is aware of the everyday Susi in accounting who maybe isnt going to switch easily from Word to LibreOffice
Money well spent. It’d be cheaper to go back to receipt books, filing cabinets and snail mail now that the american tech bullshit has continually shown it’s true colours.
On the plus side, this’ll be a reinvestment of tech knowledge because people get lazy with Windows.
