File formats, alphabets and public money: did you know that...
,----[ Quote ]
| This said, the situation in Italy can be
| summarized as follows: file formats are
| alphabets, open file formats were officially
| declared necessary at least five years ago, an
| official organization of the Italian
| Government says the formats of Microsoft
| Office are not open ones, but those formats
| are still ignored, when not actually refused,
| in most Italian Public Administrations. Why?
| Very often, it's just out of inertia and
| because citizens themselves never complain. So
| don't follow this example, check what your
| national laws say about open file formats,
| demand that they are applied and to know more
| keep reading Stop!/Zona-M.
