> Schleswig-Holstein, one of Germany’s 16 states, on Wednesday confirmed plans to move tens of thousands of systems from Microsoft Windows to Linux. The announcement follows previously established plans to migrate the state government off Microsoft Office in favor of open source LibreOffice.
People don't take it seriously because European governments have a history of making announcements like this and then rolling it back in favour of a return to Microsoft.
Lets see what happens when they try to move finance of Excel. If they are successful there, then there might be hope, if not, then they will eventually go back or have 45% of the company on some kind of exception.
