Rob,

Are you sure, that isn' what the press releases say. The story they are
giving is that the Open source project is funded by Microsoft and that the
converter will be available to download from both the Open source site AND
the Microsoft site.

I believe there are 2 different ODF converter add-ons to Word

1) There is one being prepared for the latest version of Word under
Microsoft's ownership. This will not save ODF

2) There is another "open source" ODF add on that will save.

I think that is the full picture

Thanks

Rob

Open mouth--insert foot. It says "Open and Save ODF" right on the SF
project page. I don't know what I was thinking of.

Thanks for the correction.
