FSFE president Karsten Gerloff recently wrote a blog post about the situation in the UK. He writes “Britain is the sick man of Europe in terms of Free Software adoption.” The results below agree with this. I think […]

Euro 2012 qualification day 4 -day 2 actually…

While preparing the posting for next week for the Euro 2012, I found out that I missed one match on Sep 2nd: Group C: Israel vs. Malta.

I’m pretty sure that it wasn’t listed on the UEFA page, because I remember checking it three times for the date, that my own list was lacking. I […]

Free Software in education – August – September 2010

Unfortunately, I couldn’t follow as many news as I wanted to in the last two months. Here is what I found worth sharing:

Scott Rowed wrote a guest posting in Greg Laden’s sience blog invalidating the argument that pupils should get trained on proprietary software, because that would […]

EURO 2012 qualification day 3

Another day of the qualification of the UEFA EURO 2012 in regards to Free Software usage and Open Standards came to its end. Most interesting to me was the match Norway vs. Portugal. On the wiki page for public administration, Portugal looks much weaker than Norway, but we have a lot of good news from […]

As announced yesterday, I’ll compare the participating countries of the UEFA EURO 2012 in regards to Free Software usage and Open Standards. The soccer match took place yesterday and Estonia won 2:1.

I couldn’t find any articles about the Faeroe Islands and Free Software. Does anybody know something? Otherwise, this match will definitely go to […]

Euro 2012 in Free Software

Soccer girl (cc-by-sa 2.0)

During the last few weeks after the world cup, the idea grew up in me to run a parallel tournament to the football championship in Europe 2012 where the discipline is Free Software usage in Government. This idea sounds so much like work, and I have so many other more […]

Free Software in Education – Clearing the backlog

Some 16 months ago, I intended to sum up the news I got aware of in regards to Free Software in Education on a regular basis. I still think that this is a good idea, but I guess I should shorten the time span between the postings. I figured, it’s quite a lot to catch […]

FSA09 – Freedom not Fear

I am back from Berlin. I was under the impression that this was a peaceful demonstration, but had to learn, that I was wrong (AKVorrat collects more news – mostly in German). Well, I think in general, I can still say that it was a peaceful demonstration in comparison to others. I took some pictures, […]
