Delay to Munich's Linux Adoption

It seems that the delay to the Munich Linux migration may have been a bit exaggerated. From the article:
“In a press statement issued on August 4, the city administration confirmed it was “standing by Linux,” correcting press reports that the project had been put on ice. ”
It's good to see that the delays will be small, a maximum of “two to three weeks” to decide whether the EU's Directive on software patents could affect the city's plan to switch to Linux, and it comes as no surprise that this was used as FUD by some. This migration is going to be an important milestone for Linux and Open Source and it will be interesting to see how it progresses.
