MODERATORS
This part of Germany has supported open source software for a long time now. So this didn't come unexpected or without a decade long preparation.
The most important part is not the product here. Unfortunately, the people who work with the software decide. It's also a huge effort to educate all the people to use LibreOffice.
The nice thing is that MS Office moves entirely to the cloud and SaaS. Schleswig Holstein are the only one who will be prepared for the worst soon.
Please also be prepared for the würst soon.
