All,
Here is a interesting Microsoft page about MS Doc and other Microsoft
formats. It looks like they have published the specs under some
"Microsoft Open Specification Promise"
http://www.microsoft.com/interop/docs/OfficeBinaryFormats.mspx
and
http://www.microsoft.com/interop/osp/default.mspx
I wonder if this is due to some recent EU legal cases? Have these specs
only recently been made available (the page says Feb 2008)?
Steve.
