Guys,
why don't we (leglug members) make a small group of us to go and meet
LIBNOR representatives, and prepare a well justified sort of study of
why we think OOXML is not good and how we -reasonably- recommend that
they vote "NO".

A group of 4 I guess will show them that we're serious....

what do you think?
