  • The question we should be asking is why State CIO's and IT divisions are not backing the legislative proposals? It's not the lobbying that is killing ODF. It's the lack of support from those who would have been left with the challenge of implementing ODF solutions. The silence of the CIO's is deafening.

  The title here has nothing to do with the content.  The original title is, "Politics is only a small part of this story". 
  
  It's been a while since i last posted to the ZDNet TalkBack, and was totally thrown by the TalkBack formating needs.  My first post dropped all line breaks, and came out as one long run on sentence.
  
  Now maybe that's the way i write, (and think), but at least with some formatting i can hide that fact!
  
  Still, "Butcher This!" is not a bad title. 
  
  ~ge~
