------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Mar 24 01:38:30 +0000 2008 ------- this is all strategics: what is most important for microsoft? large enterprises and governments. and they want open document formats and are smiling to opendocument. microsoft is worried and wants to bypass the requirement of supporting opendocument at any cost they are proposing their own format to leave things as they always have been, ignoring all competitors, and we are supporting them? why? they didn't even recognize the existence of linux and we are helping them? since when is it good to help competitors? and if they use questionable tactics and get sued again and again, but it's still worth for them? can we believe they will play nice this time, because.. they are now a ngo? let *them* support opendocument, and not the other way. they have to ignore ooxml, this is basic business strategics. it can be implemented in the future, native or as plugin, but i'd have it considered as the last alternative if everything goes wrong. and it shouldn't. only the most important clients of microsoft can make pressure on them, and they are doing it. let things happen --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
