I believe both wordperfect for linux and or staroffice for linux support rtf, is a pretty open format, I would think that other word processors would support it.
Anyone know why the bill is posted in Rich Text Format, and where I can get a reader for Linux? I don't want to have to strip the formatting manually...
You can get the first reading and third reading (the third is the one that passed). Looks like it took almost 3 months from initial presentation (on January 18) to it's passing, but the pass wasn't unanimous (37-8). The results of the vote are here (plus the votes from the first reading, when it was rejected). There were two amendments, also (one adopted, one rejected).
As an aside, this site is pretty well-organized... a lot of information here, easy to find, well cross-referenced.
freshmeat.net has several listing for rich text.
