I respect your right to your opinion. You are welcome to lay out your
arguments and presentation here, or perhaps more appropriately in your
own thread.

I, for one, think establishing rational standards for office document
interchange is more relevant to what I do with free and open source
software than the discussions on US spectrum policy, which I agree is a
bad thing. But my opinions on spectrum use, misuse of copyright and DRM
are (just imo) more political issues than FOSS issues, though I do take
them up with my congressmen when opportunity allows.

Well, there you go, another standard gone awry.
