Has anyone tried the just released OpenOffice 1.1 beta? I'm starting to play with the new XMLFilter architecture which seems pretty cool: an XSLT-based filter that should allow to WYSIWYG edit any XML (there is a Docbook implementation shipped with the distro, but if you want to try it out be sure to check http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=12712 first, since there is a bug in the distro itself).

From my first tests I'm not really impressed since roundtripping seems not really accurate, but it sure looks interesting from an architectural POV, since it doesn't seem difficult at all to add new filters. Thoughts?

Ciao,
