[kictanet] [Skunkworks] 26 March 2008: The world's first Document Freedom Day

[Dorcas Muthoni]

Today is Document Freedom Day: Roughly 200 teams from more than 60 countries
worldwide are organising local activities to raise awareness for Document
Freedom and Open Standards.

In a world where records are increasingly kept in electronic form, Open
Standards are crucial for valuable information to outlive the application in
which it was initially generated. The question of Document Freedom has
severe repercussions for freedom of choice, competition, markets and the
sovereignty of countries and their governments.
