German Linux Migration White Paper Updated
TheRealDamion writes to let us know that the German Federal Government Co-Ordination and Advisory Agency (KBSt) has released an updated version of their Linux Migration guide whitepaper. This guide, originally released in 2003, is incredibly detailed offering assistance on a wide range of issues that could be faced in a migration from Windows to Linux.
Meanwhile, Vienna has made their own Linux version Wienux, which is based on Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 with kernel 2.6.11 and intended to be used in small and middle businesses and muncipalities, available for download.
Do not be alarmed. This is only a test.
The Chinese translation of the 1st edition of Migration Guide can be found here:

The translation effort is sponsored by the FSOSS dEveloper Center @ Taiwan, aka FECT.
Here are some more tools and whitepapers for migrations to the Linux operating system, for example about Solaris to Linux migration, filename conversion and more.
