ODF Fuzzer

,----[ Quote ]
| ODF Fuzzer is a file format fuzzer developed 
| to test star writer of Open Office.org. This 
| will attempt to find security vulnerabilities, 
| bugs and code flaw errors of the star writer. 
| It uses byte mutation and insertion methods to 
| create fuzzed files. ODF Fuzzer have a simple 
| built in module to execute the star writer 
| with the fuzzed files and monitor itâs 
| behaviour.

OOXML: And the light came on

,----[ Quote ]
| Well, let me give you a link to a prediction I 
| made! In my post What Microsoftâs track record 
| tells us about OOXMLâs future of March 25, 
| 2008 I wrote:
| 
|     They can, and I predict will, ignore all 
|     these additions which are optional and 
|     stick to what they have. The only reason 
|     they were added was to remove reasons for 
|     National Bodies to vote against OOXML.
| 
| So, here we are. Two years later, Microsoft 
| has done exactly that and Alex Brown is 
| finally seeing the light.
| 
| One can only hope that the standards community 
| will have at least learned a lesson from this 
| sad story: you simply cannot take control away 
| from a vendor who has a monopoly and isnât 
| willing to give it up through a mere 
| standardization process.

Munich administration switches to OpenDocument Format

,----[ Quote ]
| The LiMux project, which oversees Linux
| migration in Munich, the capital of Bavaria,
| has reached another milestone. According to a
| 2009 development review that the deputy
| project leader Florian SchieÃl  has posted on
| his blog, open source OpenDocument Format
| (ODF) is now the main document exchange
| standard, with PDF being used for non-
| editable files. According to SchieÃl, the
| city administration's standard desktops now
| consist of the free OpenOffice.org office
| suite, Mozilla's Firefox browser, the
| Thunderbird email client and several other
| open source applications, such as the GIMP
| image editor.
