And, IIRC, it’s just a trial to see if it will work.

Edit: I should have read the article linked in a comment above…

“As spotted by The Document Foundation, the government has apparently finished its pilot run of LibreOffice and is now announcing plans to expand to more open source offerings.”

“In 2021, the state government announced plans to move 25,000 computers to LibreOffice by 2026. At the time, Schleswig-Holstein said it had already been testing LibreOffice for two years.”

So, it seems the trial may be over and they are migrating for good.
