Munich's failed attempt to do that in 2003

It wasn't a failed attempt. Microsoft did a handshake deal to get them to switch back (the news reported it as a "failed" switch to Linux). Then a new administration was voted in and they quickly resumed the rollout to Linux and FOSS software. That second part was never reported by the mainstream media.
