Before the presentation,Let's see the story...
Back in 2009...

BSMI (Bureau of Standards, Metrology & Inspection, Ministry of Economic Affairs) formulated a national standard, named "CNS15251", which is based on ODF 1.2 draft, and published it on January 22, 2009.

In The Bottom Half of 2014
An up-to-down power "to awaken CNS15251 (ODF 1.2) as national standard" raised, again.
NDC (National Development Council) in Taiwan central government started a series of discussions...

In Early 2015...
Yi-Lan County started a project migrating LibreOffice into the whole county government. I got the chance to help them. It is a big victory and they've insisted for nearly 2 years until now.
That was what I presented in LibreOffice Conference 2015.

The main "KPI"
● Our official documents use a format based on XML, with extension ".di".
● The attachments of official documents can be of any format, now mainly Microsoft format (.doc/.docx, … etc), some PDF or zipped files.
● The main KPI is to raise the ratio of attachments in ODF format instead of Microsoft format.

1. ODF vs OOXML
● Interesting fact: Though many people are using Microsoft Office, only very few people know that they're using OOXML.
● Actually, both ODF and OOXML are open-spec and international stardards.
– Therefore OOXML also meets our requirement.
● However, what will happen if we choose OOXML as our national file format standard?

2. Open Standard
● Why should we use Open Standard?
– An artist's story: he was not able to keep his creative artworks, which were accumulated for more than 6 years, after SoftImage was "killed" by Autodesk.
– Using open standard we don't need to worry about if the software would be "killed" or not.

3. International Trends● In September 2015 Italy Defense Department migrated
LibreOffice/ODF● Proves the safety of LibreOffice
● In March 2016 The National Procurement Services in Sweden suggested 46 IT open standards, including ODF 1.2, HTML5, SVG, … and so on.
● What the news didn't say: No OOXML!!● Why?

Finally, About the Attitude:How We Face Problems?
● People ALWAYS complain and resist a lot when they have problems or get frustrated using FOSS (not only LibreOffice!)
● But how would they react when having trouble using commercial proprietary software?
● Let's recall some "Good Memories…"

Attitude: Make It Better Together
● Using open standard format and free software, we can together make it better.

Conclusion
● When communicating, we need to focus on file format (ODF) more than software(LibreOffice).– If we focus on software, it would be easily counter-
attacked. ● (True story: commercial company's "free beer"...)
– Focus on ODF, then ask people to use software that can "generate the ODF format correctly" instead of directly asking them to "use LibreOffice".
● All the training courses are still for LibreOffice, no doubt.
– A new plan/project is going on...
