Time: 14:16 EST/19:16 GMT | News Source: TechWorld | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

According to third-party Internet sources, the plan, whose origins go back as far as 2001, had been for the canton to have deployed Debian GNU/Linux distribution for desktop users, backed up by OpenOffice, the Scalix email system, Firefox and a number of KDE desktop applications.
