This is interesting. Being German, when I read the headline I had a "not another public IT project destined to fail" moment. But this actually makes sense. The government and military need a secure communication tool, it is not a pie in the sky, but built on existing software, and they start with a well defined user base. My guts feeling is that this will be a successful project.

That is sad to hear. You hear criticism of public IT stuff here in Norway too, but it mostly works. Like I got e-receipt since 2013. Can order new prescriptions, book appointments , look at test results online online. Well the latter doesn’t always work. But everything with taxes and banking had long been all electronic and working fine.

It is based in French software... so... maybe?!
