Hello,
To quote from some other emails (Jonathon Blake in particular):
It also, however, raises the need for OpenOffice to issue a caveat
against its use for official documents created by other software.
IOW add the following warning:
"OOo can not correct for incompetence in creating documents from MSO.
Furthermore,OOo can not compensate for the defective and flawed
security measures used by Microsoft. As such, before using this
product for exams that require faulty and defective software, ensure
that you will not be unjustly penalized for the incompetence of the
organization that requires the use of software that is known to be
flawed, defective,and bug-ridden."
