Flipping the Linux switch: The GNOME desktop environment

http://www.downloadsquad.com

There is a controversy in the Linux world. It doesn't have to do with Microsoft, or anything overtly technical. It may seem, to the outsider, the open source equivalent of the question, "Boxers or briefs?" But it's much more serious than that.

"...GNOME is a desktop environment, but it is not just a desktop
environment. It is also based on a philosophy of free software and

[...] Apparently some would still like us to believe OOXML is an open standard. Make no mistake, OOXML is not an open standard, just like Christmas is not Easter."

KOffice's stance against OOXML more practical than political, developer says

http://www.linux.com

In the recent accusations that the GNOME Foundation has been supporting Microsoft's OOXML format at the expense of ODF, KDE has been presented as a counter-example. Based on a KDE News article, Richard Stallman suggested that "major KDE developers" had announced "their rejection of OOXML" and urged GNOME to do the same.
