November 30th 2005: The Romanian national operator for ECDL announces that they have held the first ECDL Module 3 - Word Processing - examination using the OpenOffice.org office suite. This is a first time in Romania and it finally gives the ECDL certifications true vendor independence in this country and it also proves that the OpenOffice.org suite is a competitive alternative to the popular Microsoft Office suite - users being able to do the same things using OpenOffice.org as those using it's main competitor.
