FYI: Banco do Brasil completes migration to OpenOffice.org

FYI

"Federally owned Banco do Brasil has completed the migration of all its
Windows XP computers to the OpenOffice.org open source suite, reported
local tech service Computerworld.

The migration involved 35,000 PCs, and Banco do Brasil now aims to
migrate another 30,000 computers that use the OS/2 operating system.
These should all migrate to the OpenOffice.org system by year-end.

Brazil was one of the first countries in the region to adopt a policy of
migration to open source at the government level, prompting
multinationals to increase development in this area."
