Here's one:

the author mistakes the narrow specific case for the general. It should read:

"Apparently the support for the OpenDocument ISO standard isn't strong
enough in the AbiSource community to actually make an effort to
improve support for it. Even when paid. Food for thought."

Yes, very much food for thought. Suggests AbiSource community really
doesn't get it. Open source needs to get behind open standards and
until it does will just be playing catch-up and just be used on the
fringe.
