  • Danish resolution B103 would require the government to define and use open file formats (see this unofficial translation of the actual parliament decision).
    • "Parliament directs the government to ensure that the use of information technology, including software, within public authorities is based upon open standards... No later than January 1st, 2008, the government should introduce and maintain a set of open standards that can serve as inspiration for other public authorities. Hereafter, open standards should be a part of the basis for public authorities' development and purchase of IT software, with the aim to further competition."
    • A report describes the implementation of the resolution. Here is a summary in english (PDF).
  • County of Gribskov, Denmark is using OpenOffice.org on all PC workstation in the administration [1] (in Danish)

    • 2,300 copies of MagyarOffice were deployed by the Ministry of Informatics in the so called e-Magyarország points in 2004,
    • more than 60% of 10,500 PCs were shipped with MagyarOffice in a public procurement for institutions in 2003, in which MagyarOffice and MS Office were treated on equal footing.

The article of IT-Business in Hungary is a good account of the present state of the Hungarian Office suite market. See: [4]. An English translation is available here (PDF).
