Munich standardizes on Kolab for its groupware

If you've been following the trials and tribulations of German city Munich's transition from Windows to Linux, you know they've moved 15,500 desktops onto Linux. They've now taken the next step and selected a standardized groupware solution for communication: Kolab. What, you were expecting Exchange Server?

I think the answer is more inertia (Score: 1)

Inertia cuts both ways. When android eventually offers a "windowed apps" mode (perhaps inspired by samsung's tizen os which has a similar feature), then people will suddenly realise they have a (linux) system they're familiar with, in their pocket, which they can plug into a screen/keyboard/mouse dock when necessary.

Then maybe they'll think twice before switching to a different computer when they get to work, especially if all they're doing is web pages, documents, spreadsheets, and emails.
