AGIMO re-opens comments on OOXML
by Alex Fraser 21 Jan '11

21 Jan '11

Hi all, Good news: due to the buzz on the net about AGIMO's decision to back OOXML in government, they seem to be accepting further comments on the issue. Reposted from the CLUG mailing list: "You asked for it - #AGIMO seeks comments for future Common OE versions http://bit.ly/gcNfZY #gov2au #OOXML" http://twitter.com/sherro58/status/28310468300906497 So what shall we do? Perhaps the easiest is for each of us to leave a comment on their blog: http://agimo.govspace.gov.au/2011/01/21/back-to-the-future-another-chance-t… Cheers, Alex

Hi Folks, Hope you're having fun and free start to 2011! I've updated our webpage and iCal calendar with the Free Software Discussion Group dates for 2011: http://www.softwarefreedom.com.au/free-software-melb/ This month's Discussion Group is on Thu 20 Jan, 6:30 - 7:30pm at the State Library. Meet just before 6:30 in the foyer, or call 0458 925 588 if you're running late. Any suggestions for topics are welcome. The recent emails suggest we could perhaps discuss "experiences with free software in educational institutions". Regards, Ben
