+Success Stories
+===============
+
+France
+======
+
+The article below begins by explaining another dent to
+MS armour as the Japanese govt is looking at putting
+Linux in its autorities which have up to 800K civil
+servants working for it. This follows the news that
+Munich has moved to a Linux solution despite Steve
+Ballmer's attempts to try and convince them otherwise.
+
+Linux and open source projects appear to be having a
+phenomenal success around the world particularly in the
+public sector and government bodies despite its
+reliance on individual contributors to maintain their
+existence.. One of the pricincipal reasons for their
+success is the financial advantage to using 'free
+software' particularly in the current economix climate.
+
+In France the acceleration into the world of open
+software has seen a huge growth since 2000 - the minister
+of Culture migrated 400 of its servers to Linux followed
+by the Ministry of Finance.
+
+Despite MS's stranglehold on the marketplace , with 9 out
+of 10 PCs equipped with Windows and Office on the
+majority of these, examples such as Munich where
+14000 desktops have migrated to Linux show that the fear
+factor around free software has been dispersed. At the
+hospital of Avranches-Granville in Normandy, France,
+400 desktops have migrated to Openoffice, the free clone
+office suite to MS.
+
+http://www.liberation.fr/page.php?Article=126087
+
+
+The 13 pages article below talks about Linux, an operating
+systems that works, meaning that it will become the first
+choice for lot of companies, shools and administrations in
+France. The article includes a lot of interviews from people
+who have moved to linux but also to OOo : a college where OOo
+was deployed on 400 desktop, Ataiire which is a private company
+and also the traveler company Nuances du Monde.

+South Africa
+============
+
+OpenOffice.org Translation
+
+The translation of OpenOffice.org into several languages in South Africa
+is being undertaken by translate.org.za. To this date this translation
+project has reached the following milestones:
+
+ * Successfully translated OpenOffice.org 1.0.x into Zulu and
+ almost completed the 1.1rc2 translation. (Packaging of the
+ translations are still underway.)
+
+ * Adapted scripts for PO (Portable Object) files and CSV (Comma
+ Separated Values) files to allow for the easier translation of
+ OpenOffice.org.
+
+
+In addition to this, translate.org.za are working on the development of
+a translation portal, which will allow anyone to help with the
+translation of OpenOffice.org, Mozilla and other Open Source projects.
+
+
+OpenOffice.org.za Portal
+
+The launch of the South African OpenOffice.org portal is being
+synchronised with the final release of OpenOffice.org 1.1. The aim of
+the portal is to provide local news and resources to existing and
+potential users, consultants and distributors in South and Southern
+Africa.
+
+
+South African Distribution Program
+
+The South African market has differing needs from that of many markets
+internationally. To this end, the South African marketing team has
+developed a localised distributor program. This program aims to
+encourage peer-to-peer distribution of OpenOffice.org through the
+maintenance of a public database of individuals, companies and
+organisations who are willing to assist with the distribution of
+OpenOffice.org on a commercial or non-profit basis. This database will
+soon be available of the OpenOffice.org.za portal.
+
+
+Sahara Computers Distributes OpenOffice.org
+
+Sahara Computers (www.sahara.co.za), the second largest distributor of
+PC's in South Africa, has begun to ship OpenOffice.org 1.0.x with all
+it's branded products. This landmark was facilitated by Chris Mostert of
+Replay (www.replay.co.za) who market software bundles to local white box
+manufacturers.

+This year's LinuxWorld Expo in San Francisco seemed to be

+LWE SF was a bit boring compared to other shows in the past.
+However, we had some good conversations with end users,
+IT managers, software vendors, hardware vendors and the media.
+
+Whil Hentzen, Ryan Singer, Josh Berkus, Christian Einfeldt,
+Louis Suarez-Potts, Edward Buck and Paul Miller volunteered
+at the OpenOffice.org pod on the Sun booth at LinuxWorld.

+-------------------------------------------
+According to this article on ZDNet UK,
+
+http://news.zdnet.co.uk/story/0,,t269-s2135726,00.html
+
+two UK councils, Newham and Nottingham, are examining the feasibility of
+moving 11,500 desktops from Windows to Linux. The article doesn't say which
+desktop applications would be used, but I'd think OOo or Star Office would be
+the likely choice for office software.

+Open Source in South Africa
+----------------------------
+"...
+OpenOffice.org OEM Distribution
+The second largest PC distributor in ZA (Sahara) is now shipping OOo
+1.0x with all their built up PC's. This was facilitated by a local media
+company which produces CD's primarily for computer magazines. These CD's
+are a compilation of various open source and other free software
+applications.
+
+Johannesburg Computer Faire
+We were unable to make the Computer Faire in Johannesburg due to a
+number of reasons. I will need to look into better planning in the
+future. We were, however able to get OOo distributed at the Faire by the
+Shuttleworth Foundation, who included it on their giveaway CD with other
+Open Source Software. Sun staff were also referring people to the
+Shuttleworth Foundation stand for copies of OOo.
+
+SA Government OSS Announcement
+Ben has already posted to the list the announcement by Minister
+Fraser-Moleketi that the South African Cabinet has approved the
+Government OSS Strategy. Whilst this is obviously beneficial to a number
+of OSS projects, OOo should be the first and biggest winner here. My
+earlier post gave some details of local translation efforts, but this
+announcement does tie directly in to the sponsoring of translate.org.za
+by government for the translation of OpenOffice.org into Zulu, Sotho and
+Afrikaans. Many of you may not know that South Africa has 11 official
+languages, all of which are targeted for eventual translation.
+
+OOo Distribution Experiment
+An experiment is currently underway to produce approx 1000 OOo CD's for
+sale at cost to distributors and resellers in Durban. The aim is to
+establish whether a self-sustaining production of OOo CD's can be
+maintained. I am currently looking for funding to expand this project
+and have contacted the Shuttleworth Foundation in this regard.
+
+Local Television Exposure
+A local prime time business magazine program recently did a piece on
+open source software. This program, although limited in its content and
+missing a great deal of relevant information, did give exposure to the
+concept of open source software to a large business audience. Whilst
+there was only a mention of OOo and a view of the OOo home page shown,
+at least it gave us some exposure. btw The MS spokesperson on the
+program was able to do MS a great disservice by not knowing the relevant
+information and generally came across as confused. A lesson to learn, if
+you are going to be interviewed, know your project, product and market.

+Microsoft sweetens its suite - australianIT.com.au report
+---------------------------------------------------------
+Microsoft sweetens its suite (Angus Kidman , June 24, 2003)
+AS Microsoft prepares the release of Office 2003, it faces
+its strongest competition in the suite market for some time.
+Canny marketing and the dominant position of Word and Excel
+helped Microsoft all but eliminate its main rivals, Lotus
+and WordPerfect, by the mid-1990s, and enabled it to reap
+the rewards of market dominance.

+
+Also built into the desktop are interfaces that make it
+easier to access to applications servers and mainframes
+using SAP clients, Windows 2000 Terminal client, and IBM
+terminal emulators. The product also contains other mail
+clients such as KMail, Evolution, and Mozilla, along with
+a number of Web browsers, calendar, and data exchange
+features that work with personal digital assistants.
+
+SuSE also announced the first hardware certifications for
+the Linux Desktop which includes IBM ThinkPads A31 and T40,
+in addition to IBM's NetVista desktop systems. The product
+has also garnered Linux Standards Base (LSB) certification,

+
+OpenOffice.org localization work
+--------------------------------
+
+Within the OpenOffice.org development project, there are currently over
+60 language localization projects under way around the world; with
+over 27 different language builds of the software available today that
+run on various operating system platforms (mainly Windows and Linux).
+
+Also, the number of native language communities in the project is
+growing rapidly, as the project recently added
+
+- Thai, http://th.openoffice.org/
+- Hindi, and http://hi.openoffice.org/
+- Japanese http://ja.openoffice.org/index.html
+
+to the existing nine:
+
+1 Czech http://cs.openoffice.org/
+2 Dansk http://da.openoffice.org/index.html
+3 German http://de.openoffice.org/index.html
+4 Spanish http://es.openoffice.org/index.html

+6 Italian http://it.openoffice.org/index.html
+7 Br. Portuguese http://br-pt.openoffice.org/index.html
+9 Dutch http://nl.openoffice.org/index.html
+
+A native language community is a group of developers and marketers that
+collaborates in a specific language through a specific Web site that is
+localized in that language. Each community has a Web site, set of
+mailing lists and projects through which they conduct the dialog
+necessary to support the development and dissemination of OOo.
+
+
+
+Events
+======
+
+JavaOne
+-------
+At JavaOne Erwin Tenhumberg staffed a booth about the
+StarOffice SDK. Many developers from high profile companies
+(incl. software vendors) came to the pod and asked very
+specific questions about how they could leverage
+StarOffice and OpenOffice.org from or within their
+Java applications. Most developers were interested in using
+OpenOffice.org as a document converter, a document/report
+generator or as an embedded GUI component within a AWT or
+Swing applications.
+
+In addition, Juergen Schmidt and Colm Smyth did a session
+about StarOffice/OpenOffice.org API development which was
+well received and generated even more interest in the OOo
+APIs. The session was attended by approximately 150 Java
+developers. Due to the strong interest in the SDK Juergen
+and Colm were not able to answer all the questions during
+their session. Therefore, they provided an "Ask the Expert"
+type support at the SDK booth during the exhibition hours.

+Munich's Microsoft vs. Linux/OpenOffice.org study now online
+------------------------------------------------------------
+SUMMARY:
+
+* Munich published a short version of the study that they
+ used for their recent decision regarding the usage of
+ Linux on the desktop (14,688 seats).
+
+* 5 solutions were compared:
+
+ - Windows XP + Office XP (XP/XP)
+ - Windows XP + OpenOffice.org (XP/OSS)
+ - Linux + OpenOffice.org (LX/OSS)
+ - Linux + OpenOffice.org + VMWare (LX/OSS/VM)
+ - Linux + OpenOffice.org + Terminal Server (LX/OSS/TS)
+
+* The best solution cost wise incl. training and
+ migration turned out to be Windows XP and Office XP
+ followed by LX/OSS/VM.
+
+* After applying quality related and strategic factors
+ like the dependence on Microsoft the best solution
+ was Linux plus OpenOffice.org and VMWare followed
+ by the pure Microsoft solution.

+"This is an outstanding migration study from Office 97
+to OpenOffice.org of a two site hospital with several
+hundred machines which has to change because of cost &
+compatibility issues with newer/older machines because
+Office 97 can no longer be purchased legally. Cost savings
+was 40% of migrating to Office XP in first year and 50%
+for two more years.

+The thesis is in French but is so well written that I was
