Or that OOo and ODF enable OpenAccess. The written material produced by University faculty is the university's most valuable and most expensive asset and open formats extend the lifespan of those assets, thus . Even if the new competitor to ODF were open, an 8000 page specification with virtually zero re-use of existing standards is in practice unimplementable. Seeing as the proponent of that competing specification can't even implement it, it can be dismissed and those floating it as an option can be dismissed either as unserious or unknowledgeable or both -- albeit in a more diplomatic manner. /Lars --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@marketing.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@marketing.openoffice.org
