Standard letters with carbon copy

Summary:

Some people are not very good at distinguishing Carbon Copy and Blind Carbon Copy. Hopefully, Carbon Copy helps when Microsoft Singapore asks to send letters of support of OOXML to the national Standards Body.

Standard letters with carbon copy

Nice support letter for OOXML in Singapore:

Mr Robert Chew
Chairman
IT Standards Committee

Dear Robert,

I understand that the IT Standards Committee is reviewing the ISO/IEC DIS 29600 (sic) ballot on Ecma Open XML.

The [Association Name] is Singapore's premier [Industry] association. [Justify the Associations relevance to the IT economy]

[Association Abbreviation] is not in a position to assess the technical merits of Ecma Open XML. We leave this in the hands of technical experts in the IETC. In as far as ITSC can satisfy itself that having Ecma Open XML as an ISO/IEC Standard, [will drive efficiency, create new opportunities / does not give any one vendor commercial advantage over its competitors], [Association Abbreviation] would like to express our support for DIS 29600 (sic) to become an ISO standard.

Yours Sincerely,

xxx
[Association Name]

Microsoft Singapore Pte Ltd

There is also a list of companies who supports OOXML in Singapore.

So randomly, I choose one of them (Inchone Ltd), and googled for it. Here is the result:

Inchone Named “Microsoft ISV Partner of the Year 2007” in Singapore

I would not be impressed if the other companies in the list are Microsoft Business Partners.

Can you google for them?
