Having "software should be transparent" next to "be able to open DOC files" (doc of course being closed source proprietary software for years controlled by a company who is anything but transparent) reads a bit comical :) Again - not following the thread generally and purposely am avoiding further comment. Just got a little kick out of this particular email :) Not that I disagree that interoperability is super important - I'd say equally important is convincing our neighbors that there are alternatives that are indeed transparent, functional, and easy to use (odf of course).
