Members of this OASIS Committee collaborate to provide expertise and resources to educate the marketplace on the value of the OpenDocument OASIS Standard. By raising awareness of the benefits offered by OpenDocument, the Committee increases the demand for and availability of ODF-conforming products, resulting in a greater choice of tools and platforms and expanding the OpenDocument community of users, suppliers, and developers. The OASIS ODF Adoption Committee works closely with the OASIS OpenDocument Technical Committee which defines the specification. All interested parties are encouraged to paricipate in this work.
