Both seem to me related to Marko's observation about Jungner at YLE and part of a larger, international trend.

One problem is the potential risk (or actualized risk in the first example) for the spread of vendor specific, DRM'd formats and protocols which can be used to lock user data and by extension user platforms into that vendor. It is something that does adversely affect the ablility or willingness to use OOo or its formats.

The second problem is that news editors and reporters are less likely to want to step on the toes of collaborators or major advertising accounts by reporting unfavorable viewpoints or certain topics.

Marko,

thanks for this account. I'll forward it to
[email protected] for the NLC news.
Your story is highly interesting, it's made of both victories and
successes. But in short, it seems, as Lars pointed out, to be a problem
of lobbying and communication.
How could this be overcome in Finland? What can the OOo finnish-speaking
community do about this?

Best,
Charles.
