Subject: Belgian Government imposes ODF format for its agencies
Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2006 11:54:08 +0200

Dear John

Can you help me finding the place where to post this breaking news inside of 
OOo?

"The Belgian government has decided all government agencies will be required 
to use only open document standards from September 2008 onwards. One year 
earlier, they should be able to read them. In practice this means only ODF 
will be supported, although OpenXML will be considered if it becomes an 
accepted standard, and enough applications use it. According to a Belgian 
Microsoft-spokesman, Microsoft is considering supporting ODF."

Regards.
