+&lt;li&gt;I wrote a bit more about &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://fossbazaar.org/content/defining-certifications-open-source&quot;&gt;Ars
 Aperta&amp;#8217;s new certification project&lt;/a&gt;. The basic idea is to 
award certifications to organizations that contribute or lead FOSS projects. 
Several types of certification exist, but in this article I discuss the 
specifics of what is probably the first comprehensive FOSS certification to 
date for companies.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Some people do not seem to be happy with Microsoft 
Office&amp;#8217;s implementation of ODF. Check out the &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://www.odfalliance.org/blog/index.php/site/microsofts_odf_support_falls_short/&quot;&gt;ODF
 Alliance blog&lt;/a&gt;. What I find amusing, besides the fact that the 
unfortunate side of this situation, is that there seems to be a willingness to 
explain that OOXML was not so bad after all.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;I could point to other blogs, &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://tuxdeluxe.org/node/296&quot;&gt;but this one comes from 
Jeremy Allison, author of Samba, now working for &lt;strike&gt;the great 
Satan&lt;/strike&gt; Google&lt;/a&gt;. It&amp;#8217;s actually quite 
interesting because what Jeremy is saying is that all this dispute seems to be 
based on the impression that Microsoft did the minimum to have ODF work inside 
MS Office. My take on this is we should first stop getting ballistic at each 
other, especially inside the ODF TC. What is needed in the interest of ODF and 
the users, is to have a careful examination not on the ODF conformance in MS 
Office, but on why, based on experience, the interoperability is severely 
hampered when using ODF with MS Office. Based on this analysis we should be 
able to go forward. But don&amp;#8217;t let this fool you: this has, 
I&amp;#8217;m afraid, nothing to do with the development of ODF 1.2.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;As an interesting reminder, &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://europa.eu/rapid/pressReleasesAction.do?reference=MEMO/08/324&amp;format=HTML&amp;aged=0&amp;language=EN&amp;guiLanguage=fr&quot;&gt;here&amp;#8217;s
 what the European Commission was saying&lt;/a&gt; about Microsoft&amp;#8217;s 
announcement on the support of ODF inside MS Office last year.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Now, Ladies and Gents, something completely different that do not 
require you getting your hands dirty with Redmondian half-truths: &lt;a 
href=&quot;ftp://qa-upload.services.openoffice.org/wiki-publisher/&quot;&gt;You 
can test OpenOffice.org&amp;#8217;s wiki publisher extension&lt;/a&gt;. What 
does it do? It allows you to write your document directly inside 
OpenOffice.org, and it then translates it into the Mediawiki syntax; the 
extension integrates a wizard that is used to directly upload the content to 
any Mediawiki-style wiki out there provided you have the address, your username 
and password.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ul&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Enjoy the Spring!&lt;/p&gt;

the users, is to have a careful examination not on the ODF conformance in MS 
Office, but on why, based on experience, the interoperability is severely 
hampered when using ODF with MS Office. Based on this analysis we should be 
able to go forward. But don&amp;#8217;t let this fool you: this has,

require you getting your hands dirty with Redmondian half-truths: &lt;a 
href=&quot;ftp://qa-upload.services.openoffice.org/wiki-publisher/&quot;&gt;You 
can test OpenOffice.org&amp;#8217;s wiki publisher extension&lt;/a&gt;. What 
does it do? It allows you to write your document directly inside 
OpenOffice.org, and it then translates it into the Mediawiki syntax; the 
extension integrates a wizard that is used to directly upload the content to 
any Mediawiki-style wiki out there provided you have the address, your username 
and password.&lt;/li&gt;

+&lt;li&gt;I wrote a bit more about &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://fossbazaar.org/content/defining-certifications-open-source&quot;&gt;Ars
 Aperta&amp;#8217;s new certification project&lt;/a&gt;. The basic idea is to 
award certifications to organizations that contribute or lead FOSS projects. 
Several types of certification exist, but in this article I discuss the 
specifics of what is probably the first comprehensive FOSS certification to 
date for companies.&lt;/li&gt;

Office&amp;#8217;s implementation of ODF. Check out the &lt;a
