    didn’t another german state already try this and fail pretty spectacularly?? cost them WAY more money and then they ended up rolling back to m$??

    given that, this is fantastic news! it’s good to see people learn from past failed implementations, hopefully learn from their mistakes, and try again instead of just blaming it on bad software
