Gearing up for Document Freedom Day
,----[ Quote ]
| Document Freedom Day (DFD) was launched in 2008 as a global day for the
| promotion and awareness of Document Freedom in particular, as well as Open
| Standards and interoperability in general. 205 teams from around the world
| registered for the first edition of Document Freedom Day. The things they did
| ranged from mini-conferences and hands-on lessons for applications supporting
| ODF, such as OpenOffice.org, over creation of awareness by taking to the
| streets and engaging people in discussions about Document Freedom, to
| awarding a special prize to the Foreign Ministry in Germany for its exemplary
| support for Open Standards and Free Software.

First the Standards, Then the Solution
,----[ Quote ]
| In the last issue of my eJournal, Standards Today, titled A Standards Agenda
| for the Obama Administration, I described the standards-based dependencies of
| the technology agenda earlier announced by president-elect Obama. That agenda
| provides for the creative use of technology to advance a number of important
| policy goals, such as achieving transparent government, equal access to the
| Internet, and reducing costs of healthcare. In this issue, I focus more
| closely on the significant role that standards will play in achieving one of
| (now) President Obama's greatest challenges â lowering healthcare costs,
| while at the same time keeping a campaign promise to provide universal health
| coverage.

Porn Site technique used to promote OOXML
,----[ Quote ]
| In March 26, 2008, was celebrated around the world the first Document Freedom
| Day (documentfreedom.org/). Notice the site's name: Document
| Freedom dot org.
|
| While refusing all around the world to participate in a celebration towards
| the promotion and usage of open standards, Microsoft even goes to the point
| of issuing a press release in Portugal against ANSOL's Document Freedom Day
| announcement.
|
| Meanwhile, anonymous supporters of OOXML use Domains by Proxy registar in
| order to register a site with a very similar address of Document Freedom
| Day's. The OOXML support site is Document Freedom Day **dot com** and
| redirects to a well known astroturf site which pretends to be a community of
| OOXML supporters.
