I wish all these European Linux projects would pool resources and create one good solution instead of each little country or even city DIYing their own solution.
Germany alone pays €200mio per year to Microsoft. Imagine what would happen if this money would go to FOSS development instead? And imagine what would happen if all EU countries would follow suit?
And now the really crazy part: what if they all didn't do their own little thing but instead pooled resources? That would overtake Microsoft within months.
