But still, this is Denmark’s tech modernization agency. They follow an eat-your-own-dogfood stance.

Transforming the public administration is the logical next step. Something different happening here, not the town hall big fuss approach.

It makes you wonder what critics think the process should look like?

Plan A: Just burn it down and rebuild FOSS in the ashes.

Plan B: The tech modernization agency can make the transition, document and enhance the process, and then guide less savvy users.

I dunno. Tough call.

Also, how does government work?

Model A: some visionary gets a great idea and everyone across the board stops whatever they’re doing all at once to prioritize this one initiative, budgets and contracts and laws be damned.

Model B: the modernization department sets standards, those standards are mandatory in the governments procurement process. All suppliers know to update, everything swaps out as-planned over time, no one goes to jail.

I dunno. Danes are weird.

I can't trust somebody with that many vowels.
Indeed, crossing the fingers to see if we finally have a proper transition.
