I for one would agree with Ian here (everything happens). Regardless of the technical expertise of the OD Foundation, I believe they've been sending the wrong message. But I wish them good luck, because they may be up to something interesting. Wrt to the Fellowship, I'd be cautious of calling it the "grassroots" organization on ODF. Let's avoid labeling this or that group in these ways, as there are others out there. For instance my name is quoted as one of the co-authors of ODF 1.1, but I don't call myself "the" author of ODF (if I were to do that we all would have a good laugh I guess).

Best,
Charles.
