I am not talking about a OS for the general public, but specifically for the administration.
And this will work much better with a unified attempt. If the EU would be taking OpenSuse for this, this would basically be the end of OpenSuses independence… I’d like it to be GNU/Linux based though.
There were grassroots movements like the Limux project (Munich using a custom Linux distribution). But that got shut down by Microsoft bribery (not confirmed, but MS did build a new headquarters in Munich…).
Yeah, that was a shame. But I really think we’d need a shared OS for all administration units of the EU (from EU level down to munipiality levels). Would be much easier as the private sector could also adjust to it.
The US at least has some degree of control over Microsoft. How much worse is that the EU is still not developing an own OS/distro?

Wouldn’t they just get enterprise SUSE licenses instead? Why bother with openSUSE?
