The First Domino Stands. If your mission really is freedom, then allowing mission creep to completely sidetrack your project for years at a time is really doing a disservice to those happy slaves you wish to emancipate. The Munich Migration project was imagined by some (including Steve Ballmer), to be the first domino which could start a chain reaction across the globe. Remember that in the time after Munich approved the migration, that other cities and governments were closely watching the Munich migration. Vienna began an major migration which flamed out, and other cities made minor moves, but later gave up.
Munich could have been the first domino, but after almost seven years of diddling around now instead stands as a beacon, warning anyone who would attempt the folly of a major desktop Linux migration in a complex production environment.
