    Hmmm, I do believe I was arguing for that, though in a somewhat limited
    way. To clarify my stand:

    One organisation should choose one OS/distribution and use that at a
    time. They can use more than one if required, but that is not a must.

    Different organisations should use different software combinations.

    For communication, standard document formats must be utilised.
    Currently, good options appear to be
    OpenOffice
    PDF.
