Nice. It sounds like the Cabinet Office Minister was talking about open standards, but that got conflated in the article with open source. I cringe a little when I see phrases like "open-source files ". But where open standards are adopted then open source programs like OpenOffice compete on a more level playing field, so this is all good. -Rob > > Ian > > Ofqual Accredited IT Qualifications <https://theingots.org/community/faq#7.0> > > Headline points in the 2014, 2015, 2016 school league tables > > www.th <http://www.theINGOTs.org>*elearningmachine.co.uk > <http://elearningmachine.co.uk>* +44 (0)1827 305940 > > The Learning Machine Limited, Reg Office, Unit 4D Gagarin, Lichfield > Road Industrial Estate, Tamworth, Staffordshire, B79 7GN.
