  An article about MS's now std whining wrt ODF but it contains a jewel
  showing where MS's real priorities lies (or don't)

  "The open letter is signed by Tom Robertson, Microsoft's general =
manager
  for interoperability and standards, and by Jean Paoli, the company's
  general manager of interoperability and XML architecture."


  Note :

  "Tom Robertson, Microsoft's general manager for interoperability"

  &

  "Jean Paoli, the company's general manager of interoperability"


  For/Of?

  Obviously it's so low down on the list that people can tack the title
  onto their real job e.g. "XML architecture" or "standards".


  It gives one the impression that it's ye olde "we have to make it =
easier
  for others to interoperate with us...."
