New Zealand Government Open Source with Novell

Posted by samzenpus on from the open-country dept.

quikflik writes "New Zealand Computerworld magazine reports an 'All-of-government' open source deal with Novell. The deal allows government agencies access to Novell Open Source software and support - and probably some other Novell products too considering the Inland Revenue Department have been using them for a while. Still .. is an incumbant vendor always the best? If you were a government, which linux distribution would you choose?"

    Well, if I were a government, I'd probably choose Redhat Linux because it is red and soft and can fit snugly on my head.

    Government #2, same question.
