The OpenDocument Fellowship has just updated its page that tracks government decisions to adopt OpenDocument. Decisions to adopt OpenDocument have been announced or are pending in at least 40 nations around the globe. The page notes that the pace of ODF adoption has accelerated to an extent that comprehensive tracking of such decisions is no longer feasible.

Aha ,there is no doubt that Microsoft would feel a sense of threat. Formed in September, Open Document Fellowship has attracted support and interest from around the globe. Many people joined them. Now they had gathered worldwide support.

A good question, Janet
There are many nations listed, even many small nations, but Russia which is a quite big nation is missing. Interesting.

Great news, this is a major improvement. OpenDocument has all the features required for full accessibility support, and distributed for non-Linux platforms, such as Microsoft Windows and OS X, I think there will more and more application support this. It is reaaly great news.
