Hi everyone,

I already posted this on the LibreOffice Google+ and Facebook pages, but
there are probably quite a few people subscibed to this list who are not
following either one.

The UK government plans to move to open standards like ODF and HTML and
apparently Microsoft didn't know that people can voice their opinions on the
proposal since January and started to spread some FUD  once again a few days
ago.

If you think that truly open standards are a better solution than OOXML,
then it'd be beneficial if you registered on the standards.data.gov.uk page
and commented. In 3 days, comments will be closed.

Proposal:

Hi :)
It might be good idea to post your message to the marketing mailing
list too.  The documentation team might have something useful to add
too.
Regards from
Tom :)
