When Linux migration hits a speed bump

What starts out like any other story about Linux migration ends up taking a turn towards what I call, “the red tape factory”. The city of Munich was all set to migrate all of their 14,000 desktops from Microsoft to Linux until a Munich alderman petitioned the Bavarian city’s mayor to “double check” the current status of software patents from within the “European Community”. Personally, I understand their concern, but I truly believe that this is going a little overboard.

What Do You Think?
