im not hung up on the wording or details, this is not for my benifit
"think of the users".

Machines with Office2000 already associate .rtf files with office
(mostly), but that is out of our control and still requires that an
Abiword user be clued-in. (i used a machine recently that had .txt
files associated with Word, talk about overkill)

If we could come to some decision and put it to the user list?
Id really like if there was a poll on the AbiSource Home page (or as
part of the Weekly news) then we could try and gauge public opinion more
often.

I think it is about time i started sending people .abw documents and
telling them to get abiword if they want to view it (or at the very
least doing it to anyone who sends me DOC or PDF files).
