Hi,

March 31st is "Document Freedom Day"

http://documentfreedom.org/

Take some time out to talk to your boss or your teachers about the
importance of Free and Open document formats, Codecs and how closed
formats and proprietary codecs (particularly those with draconian
licensing and royalties) make the life miserable for Free Software.

Taking time with them to give them a clear and sensible statement about
why they should be specifying "Open" formats would be very helpful,
IMHO.

Thanks,

md
