(my translation/paraphrasing:)
The Norwegian government has published its so called "referansekatolog",
a reference catalog listing standards and formats for obligatory use
in government and public offices.  Surprisingly, Microsofts openXML is
not included, whereas the open source format ODF is.  ODF is the
default format in OpenOffice.

Europeans. This is great news for everyone except Barney Frank, who's
always secretly wondered what it would be like to be taken by a Somali
pirate.
