This looks like the EU is finally offering an alternative suite of office tools to replace US corporate offerings from Google and Microsoft.

Edit: this is *not* an EU-backed programme, but an EU-based company offering an EU-hosted and owned office alternative to Microsoft/GCP providing migration and infrastructure services.

@ReggieHere NO NO NO. STOP THIS NONSENSE.

Sorry. But this has *nothing* to do with the EU.

This company just has an .eu domain, which anybody can have. And then they cheekily name their product so that people easily get misled into thinking that the EU is involved. Very fishy.

Please either edit your toot, or even delete it, and write a new one with correct information.

Yes, some confusion here.It's a commercial offering from a Dutch firm that is selling itself on the fact that the applications are open source and the servers are based in the EU but not run by US corporates.

The migration path is the interesting part really.
