Hi. there is another legal EU issue (inside the European Union), which is important. Please
understand that I can mention but not explain it, because I am not an expert in this field.
Eu has made since years open data (definition:
https://op.europa.eu/en/web/eu-vocabularies/concept/-/resource?uri=http://eurovoc.europa.eu/c_5ea6e5c4)
mandatory for public administrations. I think the last version is directive UE 2019/1024. so,
imnteroperability and availability are not only comfortable, but mandatory.
this should be also for scientific and research data.
so, I guess, proprietary data format are not suited for this purpose.

MS Office documents carry 80% of all malware because they are

complex the document, the lower the chances that third party software
such as LibreOffice is able to interoperate). The hidden complexity is
strictly related to the way OOXML - MS Office pseudo-standard format -
has been intentionally developed. So, this means that switching from
OOXML to ODF - LibreOffice standard document format - would reduce
security issues by a significant percentage.
This one is an interesting point. I would like to read more about it.
Italo, can you please send some article(s) on it? or we can write one too.
