I would like to thank this conference, my name is Valdir Bazaar, I am the coordinator of the Brazilian community, the beauty house, the work at NEST, Sombang State University. This kind of work, and by this time we speak in English. We want to ask you to be patient, so let's finally state our Sombang. U.S.P. is one of the largest and most important Brazilian universities, with its outstanding performance in teaching, research, and station services to the community. Maintained by state and government of Sombang, it is one of the three public universities. Free education inside the U.S.P. is one of the three public universities. Free education inside the U.S.P., University of Sombang, and Unicac, University of Philippines. Unicac created in 1976 from its latest existence of higher education, that it exists in various regions of the state of Sombang. Unicac has 34 units and 24 seats, including two went to an interior, one is state capital support. And the liberal coalition in Sombang state, over 3,700 professors, it sure sounds great to the students. More than 7,200 employees, collaborated party activities are developing in the best way, some numbers of NEST. So, how it all began? Is it the two parts of all? In here was 2003, the administration of these two parts. With license, shoe, and leg in our financial research, may be placed in NEST ops to run. In installation of NEST ops in our computers. After 5 years, used in open ops, in 2008, the process is embarrassing to understand Microsoft ops in our computers. 5 years, but when it's happening, the problem, interoperability between institute of arts and university happening, generating work, it's a problem. In 2005, the companies of interoperability had same problem with software like this. So, administration in direction had a problem. We are opposite of our installation to replace NEST ops. In 2006, it was replaced of the old suite in our computers. In starting, the large users support. Everything seems good until 2007. Professor had a problem with their presentation made in PowerPoint. This happened because, in co-operative, between press and PowerPoint. The same professor, we are opposite of our integration. Now, ordered to buy NEST ops. In 2008, was established NEST ops in our computers. After communication support efficient. Imagine anything to be made in direction, support. In left of free software support ports. In January, out in the software. In your state of support. How we can begin in the software. In order to solve the problem with the adjustment software installation. Support and maintenance of computers of the administration. In January, in the software. The information local committee advisory board of the unit. Approved in August 2006. The project implementation of the free software in administration of campus in the software. Together with the direction called. With the support of the leadership in February 2007. Gave that early dissemination of the project along the community. The big RFC.org, Firefox and Thunderbird. So chosen to start the integration. Migration process. Because we're back in the place of the tools that we're using. Microsoft jobs, Internet Explorer and Outlook. Our multi-platform problems. Initially, the proposal was to train the server of each section. So that would fly us. We are aware of the problems we're using. In February 2007. We're getting installed the package of the free software. Mozilla Firefox, Thunderbird, Biroxy.org. In Windows. Without moving Microsoft jobs feet. The idea was. That the servers for the time to adjust. To Biroxy.org because. And this office would be. Uninstalled. We've not signed it yet. Suddenly. Was not right. New players were not multiplying. No match with their colors. That's wrong. Then there was changing of strategy. Training would have to be all employees. In 2009. Excaliburation of the system. Nineties. About five percent. The computers of the package. Using. Limits. Technical support. Reducing explanation. The calls were for his time printers. The cover of the system. Automated aids. And support the use of new jobs. Thunderbird. We have no more problems. With the infection providers. Drogens. Of warrants. You can use remote support tools. Providing faster servers to users. In 2010. Was provided a piece to evaluate. What the users were thinking about. Accumulation. Since when for users founded. To serve. Six percent. Say they were satisfied. With the migration to the software. And twenty percent. Were dissatisfied. Ten percent. Say they wanted to go back to Windows. Of course. Because the creation. Exoption. Was a joke. Because the creation was going back. Some conclusions. What was the reason for thirty percent. Of the employees. Are satisfied. We don't say that during the. Migration. Migration process. New hires happen. And they had not received the training. In the software products. Initiating. Immediately in action. Operating training. In new lines. For everyone. Overreviews were going through. Sometimes. After training. Had a significant increase. In saturation. Of users. The process. Of migration. To the software. Is for chinos. And then. The objective is to expand. Through all sectors. Within the college. With. Successful experience. But to speak about. Results. Of this experience. According to this. I will talk in part. Okay. What resulted in this experience. This experience. Third. Part of an institution of development. Is the. Institution. Development. For the next few years. So. This action. Was. To conduct. Migration project. To free. And open. Software. In. Universe. Prioritize the use. Of free. And open. Software. This action. Was our first. Win. Against. Provider. Software. After this. We needed to. Define. Some strategies. To. Conduct. Migration. The main strategies. We. Define. To. Migration. In. IDP. Sponsorship. Of. Administration. Was necessary. To support. Migration. To support. Extermination. About. Migration. In each unit. Training. For. All employees. Installation. Of. Librosi. In. All. PCs. All desktops. Universities. It's around. Of. Forty-five. Thousand. Use. PDF. As. Format. To exchange. Documents. Between. External. Public. And. Internal. Public. When. Is not required. For. To. To. When. Is not required. Editing. Documents. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. To. was composed of five, in my role as voice, as coordinator, Valdir Barbosa and me. Initially, we think that seven members was necessary, but we can't join more people. And we have an implementation being composed by volunteers. These volunteers were trained to train and installation in each unit. But training was conducted only by me and Valdir. Some policies were defined. The ordinance number 282-2012 defined that all PCs, all desktop computers acquired by the University had been compatible with first free software. This ordinance number 383-25, the ODS format, has official format to be used in the University. This is to turn ODS adoption into reality and support our cause. This ordinance refers to public tender. This ordinance corrects the job skills for public tender to replace the knowledge on Microsoft tools, to Liberalsi and Mozilla tools as Firefox and Thunderbird. What happened behind, we started a campaign to sensitize our community that was, this campaign included extensive participation to disseminate ODS new file format to the University. The free software concepts, Valdir, Alun, visit many units explaining why all this change caused in our community. To help us to give an idea to this campaign, we created 2003 this logo. It's an adaptation of Oasis logo about free ODS and being included for career and as a creator. This is an ordinance that defines ODS as file of the format. The training was offered to all employees from the University. How was showing that each unit very distanced. The policy definition, the free software adoption was created templates of official documents in ODS included visual ID to solve all problems when we began training in Hector this month. At the end of September, we started training for about 150 employees. In 2014 this year, we had two instructors, Valdir and me. We conduct the training in 15 cities, 18 university units. We trained approximately 160,000, yes, 1,600 employees. So now we had almost 4,000 installations. To train all employees from the University, we had estimated $150,000 approximately. This allows only to pay Hector and travel instructors because we are employees from the University. These costs are only to pay our travel, Hector and fee. Our estimated cost is in the training center. So almost people go to the same employees. 2012 with the University, Microsoft licensing, price registration. What is price registration? It's an intention to acquire license in a certain period. These values are the amount to acquire 25,000 licenses only. But in the University, we have 45,000. It's a lot of money. How much is it? 2,000. Only with installations that almost 1.8 million dollars. Prices of registration price. The registration price has the price down the market. What's the next steps? Libros training Hector, start for this month. ODIF migration in Hector, where we have the problems to exchange documents with each unit. Installation, multiple fire fought and tender bird. Training in Linux. We don't know what distribution. Will we use it? Yes, probably. Ubuntu or Open Source, and 2018 OS migration. We last had a long-time experience with Free Software in infrastructure. But 85% of our servers in infrastructure using Freeway, USB, and Linux, our servers, 94% using Free Software. We had the high use of a field like this. The world in Latin America. The world is hard, not finished. Inviting you to participate in our meeting in Brazil.  Okay? Thank you so much. I would like to ask if the presentation will be on the web page, cover the web page. And I didn't catch how many people participated in your questionnaire. In training? Your problem, migration? Yes, the questionnaire, where 70% versus 5% How many people participated? In the questionnaire. How many people? Second questionnaire. Ubuntu or Open Source? Ubuntu. Seven? Seven. And the other day, you didn't want to answer or write why the other employees didn't feel the questionnaire. The questionnaire is not a revision. It's a participated online. How many volunteers to actually fill it out again? No. No, it went to 70%. How many? Seven. Seven? Okay. You said you saved 3 million dollars on license registration. Yes. And until now, you saved 1.7 billion. So why is the saving until now so low? What was the installation? It was based on a number of installations or examples. Okay. And this didn't come with new computers, new laptops. We don't came with Microsoft Office installation. Only free software are installed. Okay. And the 250,000 dollars spent on trading or free software, is that total or is that growing? Total. So the total trading cost in two years will still be 250,000. Yes. The cost estimated at only to pay our moving between units and to stay in hotel and field, of course. Okay. So total saving at the end of this will be something like 7 million? Yes, almost 7 million. That's not bad. The cost for the 250,000 dollars are you an employee of the United States? So that does not include your salary in there? No. The additional cost from travel? I was just going to ask, is this a model for migration, the other educational regions looked at? Are you discussing with other regions? Yes. What do we do? Discuss with other universities. In south of Brazil, we have a great phase of migration involvement. And the state, real branded, is the first state to adopt free software in all administrations. And then to do our migration strategies. Are you willing to make material, training material? Okay. Migration guides, are you willing to make those available to other regions? We have website with material to help train to some videos with how to do, what do they do for you to make it. And a lot of stuff, material to help us in this. Are there other students? Only employees. Only employees from the training are administrative. The Brazil has adopted the ODEF format, right? Yes. And did you start your training before Brazil adopted the ODEF? Or did you start with no ODEF but were more interested now in things that people don't understand what happened without ODEF and other organizations? And the resistance to change is a great problem. The people use Microsoft since 1992, three years ago. And this change is very different more than my time. Thank you so much.


I said, Alan, I think I need to stay in college. And he goes, why? I said, well, people respect you if you have a degree. And I'll never forget, it was on the phone. It's where Mississippi an old guy goes, Ty, no, this is America, make a million dollars. Then people will respect you. So I think there's some truth to that. So I would say I'm more in the pursuit of adventure. I always have been. That's why I lived at the homage. That's why I travel. That's why I could make more money. I'm one of my best friends, dude. He just focuses on money. I realized I couldn't do all the adventures I wanted if I was always stressed financially. And that's my main message to people. He ain't not everybody's gonna be a millionaire. Not everybody would even want to. But there was a Nobel Prize winner. His name is Daniel Kahneman. He says, if you're not making 72 grand a year in the United States, he can chart happiness decreasing. So you've got to look at the dominoes of life. Like what dominoes do you have to push that make all the other dominoes fall? And money is a big one because if you're healthy, what's the number one cause of divorce? Not having enough money.
