    Although most of it is whited out in the published decision, this appears to be public information, as can bee seen on page 27 of this document.

    Of course, this is only speculation and should not result in anyone doing illegal things.

    Hamburgers, pizza, tacos, Chinese food and turkey.

    After whacking the good fish upside the head, I think I've made some more sense of this.
    It looks like hamburg.de is a pre-existing portal (I think run by the city - the translation is really bad) and the city has partnered with a private company to actually run it. As part of the deal, the city is going to be putting a lot of its administative functions on the site. Also, it looks like they're trying to get local businesses to move into e-commerce through this thing.
    Some more poking around got me to this, which indicates that an EU commission called Telecities is responsible in part for this. Created in 1993, its goal has been to help Europe become part of the "Information Society" - and it boasts a pretty impressive set of member cities. Interestingly, its sister projects are Car Free Cities and something called POLIS, which looks to be creating new regional transportion systems.
