- Another German state heads down the open source sovereignty road
Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, a German state, is transitioning from Microsoft SharePoint to FOSS tools like Nextcloud and OpenProject as part of a digital sovereignty initiative. The state aims to expand the use of these tools to over 50,000 public employees and is collaborating with Schleswig-Holstein and Bavaria to adopt unified platforms. Bavaria has also launched projects to measure digital sovereignty and is seeking alternatives to Microsoft following a canceled billion-dollar deal.
