Comments: We should ask for forgiveness rather than permission on the OpenOffice vs OpenOffice.org business, apparently just like Oracle is doing. I realize that the way I've used Open Document Format is not correct, but I like the impression it leaves...LibO supports the Open Document Format. The quasi-monopolist supports a subset of the Office Open XML format of the Open Document standard. Not sure that LibreOffice runs on "any platform". Maybe that should be "all popular platforms" or "cross platform". Not a big deal. It actually would be a good argument to have...who supports the most platforms. > -------------------------- > > Alright I don't want to make it much if any longer, but I also would like to > get something explicit in there about ODF Added the bit about ODF and URLs that someone suggested. > > Any good ideas on edits there. > > Thanks again > > Drew > > > > -- > Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] > List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/us/marketing/ > *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** > -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/us/marketing/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
