OpenOffice.org in enterp[r]ise
,----[ Quote ]
| Roll out occurred almost without any problems. MSI installation is easy to
| handle. FTZ is Ãsing Citrix. Mads believe that FTZ has saved a lot of money
| by choosing OpenOffice.org rather than Microsoft Office. There is still a
| recurring problem when FTZ receive attachments from the Microsoft Office
| 2007, but in the FTZ, they have chosen a key solution, where the IT
| department takes care of conversion of documents.

ISO boards face OOXML deadline pressure
,----[ Quote ]
| In Denmark, a source reportedly said that Microsoft pressured him to send an
| expression of support to Dansk Standard, the Danish standards board. By
| Groklaw's translation, Version2 reported: "'If I had not sent in a positive
| comment, it would have had consequences for our relations with Microsoft', he
| says. Our source points to e.g. leads, support and seminars as areas that
| might be jeopardised if 'he did not behave'." Â Â
|
| The Danish MP reportedly wants assurance that only technical factors were
| considered by Dansk Standard and that political or economic influences were
| not brought to bear. Â
|
| Also, a member of the Danish parliament has reportedly lodged a pointed
| question with a government minister as to whether the government has had any
| contact with Dansk Standard with regard to the ISO vote on OOXML. Â
|
| In Norway, Microsoft apparently mounted an astroturfing campaign against the
| Norwegian standards body Standard Norge. Out of 59 comments received by
| Standard Norge, 37 were a Vole form letter that many of its Norwegian
| business partners didn't even bother to sign before sending them in. Â
