		<title>Standard letters with carbon copy</title>
		<link>http://www.noooxml.org/forum/t-50327/standard-letters-with-carbon-copy</link>
		<description>Posts in the discussion thread &quot;Standard letters with carbon copy&quot; - Some people are not very good at distinguishing Carbon Copy and Blind Carbon Copy. Hopefully, Carbon Copy helps when Microsoft Singapore asks to send letters of support of OOXML to the national Standards Body.</description>

[Justify the Associations relevance to the IT economy]</p> <p>[Association Abbreviation] is not in a position to assess the technical merits of Ecma Open XML. We leave this in the hands of technical experts in the IETC. In as far as ITSC can satisfy itself that having Ecma Open XML as an ISO/IEC Standard, [will drive efficiency, create new opportunities / does not give any one vendor commercial advantage over its competitors], [Association Abbreviation] would like to express our support for DIS 29600 (sic) to become an ISO standard.</p> <p>Yours Sincerely,</p> <p>xxx<br /> [Association Name]</p> <p><strong>cc: Mr Barney Lau<br /> Managing Director<br /> Microsoft Singapore Pte Ltd</strong></p> </blockquote> <p>There is also a <a href="http://www.openmalaysiablog.com/images/2008/03/30/mssupportletter3.png">list of companies</a> who supports OOXML in Singapore.</p> <div class="image-container aligncenter"><img src="http://hasansaidin.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/2008/03/30/mssupportletter3.png" alt="mssupportletter3.png" class="image" /></div> <div class="image-container aligncenter"><img src="http://hasansaidin.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/2008/03/30/mssupportletter4.png" alt="mssupportletter4.png" class="image" /></div> <p>So randomly, I choose one of them (Inchone Ltd), and googled for it. Here is the result:</p> <blockquote> <p>Inchone Named “Microsoft ISV Partner of the Year 2007” in Singapore</p> </blockquote> <p>I would not be impressed if the other companies in the list are Microsoft Business Partners.</p> <p>Can you google for them?</p>
