Draft blog post for Document Freedom Day
https://blogs.apache.org/preview/OOo/?previewEntry=openoffice_and_odf
It still needs a bit of work but I'm sharing the draft in case anyone
has some early feedback.

Super. Feel free to answer what you want at your leisure but ideally before 27 March. It can also be issued as a series of blog posts.
My blog, or the blog to which this would be posted, would be ooo-speak.blogspot. It's not by any means an official Apache blog and this would not be official Apache speak, though for all I care they are welcome to make it such. Idea is just to inform and promote and encourage participation, all of which, of course, fall well within the Apache mandate.

Rob, or anyone else involved in ODF development and advocacy:
Would you be interested in a very short interview, conducted via IM or email? The questions would be of this sort:
* What is an open standard document and why is it important to users and developers?
* What does a standard do and how is a document standard maintained? And by which body?
* Is innovation affected? That is, how are innovations, of whatever nature, accommodated by the standards process?
* Numerous office suites now support, to a greater or lesser extent, ODF 1.2. In very general terms, how interoperable are those implementations? Clearly, a definitive answer would depend upon the actual document and its properties, so let's stay general.
* The "cloud" is in the press (ad nauseum). Does an open standard for documents (e.g., ODF or OOXML) have any bearing here for users and developers? (A vague question, to be interpreted as you will.)

As per wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document_Freedom_Day, the document
freedom day is last wednesday of march. So this year it is March 27th. But
AOO blog says Feb 21st. Which is correct?
With Warm Regards

Actually the version at
https://blogs.apache.org/preview/OOo/?previewEntry=openoffice_and_odf
still says Feb 21, but for the rest it is a nice post.
There are a couple of typos at the end, after the ODF logo:
- Check "many our volunteers"
- Louis' last name is wrong
- Check "doesn'tt"

Andrea.

Also, a logo we can use here, using an element of the DFD logo:
http://www.openoffice.org/images/AOO_logos/dfd-site-logo.png
I'm happy to defer if anyone else has a better logo. But we're
running short on time, so I'll use this one if there is no other one
proposed.
