Gotta give them props for all the English. I know that can't have been easy.

Now they just need to change the name so it's not so obviously French, and invite collaboration from the other large EU countries. I wonder how many Dutch or German will think of "La Suite Numerique" as an EU-wide office suite.

That website is specifically to explain it to French audiences.

German version is here, but unlike France they're mostly boosting already-existing German open source software (like Nextcloud and Open Xchange): https://opencode.de/en/home

I don't know how the Netherlands really fits into all of this, but I know they're one of the biggest funders of open source projects in general via NLnet. Seriously, their list of projects they've given money to is ridiculously comprehensive, you're going to struggle naming some that are not listed here: https://nlnet.nl/project/index.html

Why not? Plenty of French people speak English at a native level.

As a francophone, I can tell you that the vast majority doesn't.

Among software developers, the vast majority does.

"Now they just need to change the name so it's not so obviously French"

Where I live names that aren't so obviously American have an advantage.

The Dutch are also working on this: https://minbzk.github.io/mijn-bureau/

Which uses LaSuite.

The Dutch would probably use it no problem without even noticing it was French, same way they would if it were German, or English.

>>ta2024+Bt1
Is the German version of La Suite: OpenDesk? Because to me (Dutch) I like the OpenDesk name better.

>>eloisa+uA
definitely not at a native level...

Why are you nitpicking this? Are all French people incompetent laggards at speaking English? No, definitely not. There’s nothing about being French which makes you incapable of typing English text and maybe even *gasp* using a spell and grammar checker. The GitHub org shows seven people, is it so hard to believe they’re not absolute dolts at English? Why are you hell bent on insulting yourself?

FWIW, NLNet is distributing EU funds, not Dutch funds.

That said, the Dutch government is collaborating with La Suite (fr) and OpenDesk (de): https://minbzk.github.io/mijn-bureau/
