Mass. to use Microsoft Office in ODF plan | |
|
||
| Time: 15:29 EST/20:29 GMT | News Source: News.com | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner | ||

Massachusetts will begin using OpenDocument as the default document format later this year as planned, but it will be sticking with Microsoft Office in the near term, the state's top technology executive said. As expected, Louis Gutierrez, chief information officer of Massachusetts' Information Technology Division, on Wednesday sent a letter seen by CNET News.com to advocates of people with disabilities. The letter was in response to their concerns about the commonwealth's plan to move to the OpenDocument format, or ODF, standard. In addition, Gutierrez last week wrote to the state's Information Technology Advisory Board with an update on the OpenDocument format implementation plan, as had been planned. | ||

Excellent. Hopefully they'll be using the good ODF plugin instead of that piece of crap MS commissioned last year.

| Excellent. Hopefully governments will continue to choose technology based on functionality instead of whether some group of Microsoft haters slap "open" on the name of a format patented by a Microsoft competitor. |
