Vienna (wien) is the Austrian Capital and one of the three places where the UNO has dependencies (the other two being New York and Geneva)
The whohle thing is noteworthy because Vienna has not only jumped the Linux Bandwagon but because they are in close contact with the people doing the same in Munich (not that far away).
They have both offered to help and support other cities considering a change as well...
So this is not a single incident but - as they have stated themselves - a movement.
here the official information by the MA14 (thats Magistrats Abteilung or City Dept. 14)
http://www.wien.gv.at/ma14/rtf/oss-studie-englisch -kurzfassung-.rtf
And the link to the MA 14 itself - if your interested ask them. (This is german, mind)
