I understand the strategic choice, however I think this is quite "Microsoft
wins" one.

The OOXML is not-so-hot issue so far. Even MSOffice users understand, that .docx
files are problematic for previous versions of Office. I understand however,
that implementing this crap will take years.

I'm afraid that Microsoft won this battle, because instead of having decent RTF
support and excellent DOC/XLS support, we will have 50% RTF and 75% DOC/XLS
support and forever-doomed partial OOXML support. Everything available but
nothing perfect.

I think there should be one REALLY good "bridging" format. And considering the
amount of work done and consequences (Sun ODF plugin), the format is DOC rather
than DOCX.
