[Plugtest-org] draft agenda updated

[Louis Suarez-Potts]

I think that this (resolution of ODF/doc and also OOXML?) could be  
interesting, esp. as Amsterdam represents several things--a city  
that's big and migrating over, and doing so with essentially local  
companies. That is, I think that other groups would be quite interested.
