By 2020 when the    support of the Windows 7 service is terminated, it is planning    to switch to open OS and minimize damages. Industry insiders    pointed out that the standard e-document format must be    established and shared as an open source before open source    software is invigorated. A     similar suggestion that Korea might embrace more open    source (but couched more cautiously, with more \"should\" and    \"may\") is reported on the news page of the EU's program on Interoperability    Solutions for European Public Administrations, based on a    workshop presentation earlier this month by Korea's Ministry of    Science, ICT, and Future Planning. (And at a smaller but still    huge scale, the capitol city of Seoul appears to be     going in for open source software in a big way, too.)<\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>See the rest here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/slashdot.feedsportal.com\/c\/35028\/f\/647427\/s\/3bf6fcb3\/sc\/4\/l\/0Lnews0Bslashdot0Borg0Cstory0C140C0A60C280C0A0A192410Cwhy0Ethe0Ekorean0Egovernment0Ecould0Ego0Eopen0Esource0Eby0E20A20A0Dutm0Isource0Frss10B0Amainlinkanon0Gutm0Imedium0Ffeed\/story01.htm\/RK=0\/RS=Lgicaor_txGqWTeXMcEWo70SU1w-\" title=\"Why The Korean Government Could Go Open Source By 2020\">Why The Korean Government Could Go Open Source By 2020<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> An anonymous reader writes As the support for the Microsoft (MS) Windows XP service is terminated this year, the government will try to invigorate open source software in order to solve the problem of dependency on certain software. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24402","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-open-source-software"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24402"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24402"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24402\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24402"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24402"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24402"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
