"The Bundestux campaign to get the German Bundestag to
adopt open source software has experienced a possible setback, in
the shape of a report that recommends open source for adoption in
some areas, but leaves Microsoft on the desktop. This can still be
counted as progress, and certainly doesn't flatter Microsoft, but
if the Bundestag accepts the recommendations it won't constitute a
total defeat for the company either.
According to a report at Heise.de (regrettably, the English
version seems to have had an unsatisfactory assignation with
Babelfish), a five month study by Berlin company Infora concludes
that open source is most apppropriate for mailserver and groupware
tasks, while for file and print serving open source also came out
ahead."
