Nice irony. :) The consultation document itself was created using LO34, yet classified with the government organisation as a "word template"!

As long as users are encouraged to create m$ documents using LO, m$ will remain dominant. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+help@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
