+<h1>Document Freedom Day</h1>
+
+<p>February 27th is Document Freedom Day, a celebration of Open Standards, especially those related to your electronic documents.  The Apache OpenOffice project
+enthusiastically supports Document Freedom Day and offers the folowing thoughts for you to read and share with your friends</p>
+
+<h2>What are Open Standards?</h2>
+
+<p>There are many different nuanced definitions promoted by various authories, but in general Open Standards are standards that are developed in an open, consensus-based process, 
+are freely available for anyone to use, and do not require royalty payments to implement.</p>
+
+<h2>Why are Open Standards important?</h2>
+
+<ul>
+    <li>Use of open standards makes your software less expensive, since the authors of the code did not need to pay royalties.  Free software, including open source
+        software, would be nearly impossible to create without open standards.</li>
+    <li>Open standards promote widespread adoption and interoperability.</li>
+    <li>Open standards encourage a market where vendors compete based on features and quality, rather than rely on vendor lock-in.</li>
+    <li>Open standards put <b>you</b> in control of your documents and your data.</li>
+</ul>
+
+
+<h2>What are some important Open Standards?</h2>
+
+
+<ul>
+    <li>Open Document Format (ODF) is the ISO-approved standard for office documents, the default format for Apache OpenOffice.</li>
+    <li>Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is the W3C standard for vector graphics, suported on the web and in Apache OpenOffice.</li>
+    <li>Portable Document Format (PDF) is the ISO-approved standard for fixed-layout document representations, supported in many applications including Apache OpenOffice.</li>
+    <li>Mathematical Markup Language (MathML) is the W3C standard for representing mathematical equations, supported on the web and in Apache OpenOffice.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>What can I do to help promote open standards</h2>
+
+<ol>
+    <li>Use open standards wherever your application supports them.</li>
+    <li>If your favorite applications don't support open standards like ODF, write to your vendor and request that.</li>
+    <li>When you publish documents on the web, do so in open formats.</li>
+    <li></li>
