NY document format study -- Request for Public Comment

[robert_weir@us.ibm.com]

Hi !

You may have heard that New York has just recently put out a Request for
Public Comment on "A study concerning electronic record policy for
New 
York State."

The list of questions are at the following URL, and the PDF file linked
from it:   http://www.oft.state.ny.us/oftnews/erecords-study.htm

One question (#57 in the PDF) refers to a criticism of ODF  (no source
given), which is stated as:

"Another criticism of ODF has been that many vendors of assistive
technology software have not ported their software to ODF-based 
applications."

The questionnaire then whether this is a valid criticism. 

Any ideas on this? 

Thanks,

-Rob
