The last paragraph is a good summary:<p>Last week, 21 June 2013, the head of technology and information systems of internal security, General Bernard Pappalardo, wrote to the interdepartmental steering information and communication systems, by sending a copy of his letter to all departments. "For many years, the police tried to avoid this type of dependency and promote free software for its information systems (workstations and servers)", said the general. "That's why it will not deploy the solution chosen by UGAP to protect its desktop solution and launched a preliminary consultation on the acquisition of an antivirus solution which must include a management console on Linux."<p>UGAP being (to my knowledge) in charge of making the government save money in this kind of situation.
