Delay to Munich's Linux move only "few weeks"
The Munich city administration has said that it expects its planned migration to Linux to be delayed by only a few weeks as the impact of proposed European Union software patenting legislation is examined.
Bernd Plank, a spokesman for Munich town hall, said today that he expected that the administration would take a maximum of "two to three weeks" to decide whether the EU's Directive on software patents could affect the city's plan to switch to Linux. There would be no "dramatic setback," he added.
