[Bug-gnupedia]Re: Submissions in Word Format

[Dan Geiser]

Hi, Mike!
Regardless of one's reasons for not wanting to accept Word documents, 
technical or philosohical, can't the topic of Word submissions be placed on 
the list of "Features for Future Consideration" to be discussed and/or 
considered at a future date?

On a related note I'm suprised that the Free Software community hasn't 
devloped a basic framework for the development and incubation of projects of 
this nature, regardless of the scope of the project.  Or if that framework 
does exist can someone point me to it?

Thanks For Your Ear,
Dan Geiser <address@hidden>
