"Then still send him the ODF files, until he learns to handle ODF files correctly."
I would love to, but he's my uncle and I can't really be that way with him. I'm not a professor or anything I don't have that clout.
An MIT-Professor and Father of Free Software Stallman can by all means enforce free software wherever he goes because he has a level of respect. I can't be forcing people to use libre software, I'll tell them politely and explain the benefits and leave it at that.
I think that Free Software should be able to coexist as an alternative, but if using free software allows users to only publish to other free software users then what is the point? Libreoffice must be compatible with non-free Word so as to not push me, the user, to use Word instead.
Not trying to go off-topic so I apologize, but I do not have the means to make anyone else go libre other than myself.
