DII Workshop on ODF and SP2 – complete

Yesterday’s DII workshop on ODF and SP2 is all done. It was great to be a part of the conversation and to meet many of the people that I have only ever known through blogs and online.

From my point of view it was really helpful to hear experts in this field discussion document standards in general along with what it will take for Microsoft to deliver ODF in a way that balances the needs of several different constituents (standards professionals, governments, regulators and users).

I’m sure we’ll see posts with all the details over the next 48 hours as people make their way home, and it is probably best that I let others share their perspective on the conversation rather than me doing it.

For now you’ll find posts from Jesper Lund Stocholm and John Head that get things off to a good start. Also, a couple of Microsoft folks have posts up, Stephen McGibbon and Doug Mahugh.

I’ll add other links here as they appear.
