Re: Standards compliance in Doar Israel

2009-02-11 Thread Ira Abramov
Quoting Dotan Cohen, from the post of Sun, 08 Feb:
 I have to send a document to Doar Israel. I plan on sending it in .odt
 format. Is there a law in Israel, such as there is in many European
 countries, that states that Israeli agencies must accept
 standards-compliant formats such as odf? Am I being a menuval by
 sending in this format?

not evil, not silly, just quixotic, and self-defeating (you WILL have to
resend it).

RTF is sorta-kinda mid-way between de-facto and de-jure standrd. not as
proprietary as DOC, but not as esoteric (and unrecognized by gov't) as
ODT.

One day maybe, soon I hope, but not yet.

No laws here.

Not even standards.

You aren't being a menuval, just being a silly.
