quoting Lars Risan:
EU has financed an economic research program into Fre/Libre/Open Source
Software ("FLOSS"). The final report is out (as announced at Slashdot
and elsewhere). Extremadura is one of the cases in the report. People on
this list will certainly learn a lot more about the case by talking to
José and others, but the report may be used as a "heavy" political
argument. The main report is not an easy read, it is extremely dry, and
propped with numbers. The sub-report describing the cases is more easily
informative.

I just also have to mention the case of Beaumont Hospital, from the
report, the largest hospital in Ireland. After spending a lot of wasted
money on the "Y2K-bug" they experienced a dramatic budget cut on ICT:
 From yearly 1.6 million € to 20.000 €!

600.000 € of the 1.6 million covered annual licenses. So the ICT-staff
re-educated itself to do "FLOSS", spending half-a-year on that process,
and they searched the FLOSS-world and found 1) fully working
FLOSS-alternatives or 2) ways to develop solutions themselves. They were
thus able to replace most of their applications and operating systems
with Open Source alternatives. (They only had to keep Windows on the
desktops, "because the Phd-students denied to use Star Office" -- and
Microsoft cut their license-fees by 80%).
