From Digg: Microsoft is going through it’s email and phone lists asking people to support their opposition to California A.B. 1668 – “Open Document Format, Open Source”. by writing to the California Assemblymen involved in this bill (contact info in the link). Let’s see if Digg can raise as much support for the CA ODF bill as they can raise opposition.

Me: I often wonder how much of HSPD-12 is due to Microsoft’s lobbying efforts in Washington. I find it quite interesting that all government agencies are moving to a single forest setup with Active Directory driving the train. The funny part is – they require smartcard integration, which is not much more than a hack for some Microsoft technologies.
