The Agence Wallone des Télécommunications (Walloon Agency for Telecommunications), a partner of Profoss, has published a study about the use of ICT in the walloon municipalities. It appears that the best known environment is Linux, mastered by 23%, before dotNet (17%). More than 1 out of 4 munipalities use an open source project as their server application, and of those only 12% have no dedicated computer personel.

Software about which the municipalities are the least happy are those managing works, cemeteries, urbanism and the police. Time to develop an free and opens source solution for those tasks?
