I’d probably wait for mass public service adoption of Linux in EU (China, India?) at the very least. They would port Adobe Acrobat first as their scout, and then we’d see what comes next.
In Russia the incertainity of Windows’ availiability made local software companies consider, start testing or even produce releases for Linux because of FOMO. For global megacorps, there should be an incencitive, coming either from profits, out of fear or as a legal requirement.
