<id>http://blogs.sun.com/dancer/entry/huge_success_for_the_odf</id>
+               <updated>2008-05-22T04:44:27+00:00</updated>
+               <content type="html">First, I warmly welcome Microsoft to the 
community of ODF supporters. As most of you will have noticed by now, Microsoft 
&lt;a 
href=&quot;http://www.microsoft.com/Presspass/press/2008/may08/05-21ExpandedFormatsPR.mspx&quot;&gt;just
 announced&lt;/a&gt; that they will start supporting ODF out of the box with 
Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Office 2007. My favorite statement from the 
Microsoft announcement is the following promise: &quot;It will also allow 
customers to set ODF as the default file format for Office 2007.&quot; Thus, 
very soon it should be very easy for organizations to standardize their 
document workflows on ODF, because the &quot;average employee&quot; does not 
need any special skills for saving to ODF anymore. Very cool!
+&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
+Initially, Microsoft will support ODF 1.1 which is the most current OASIS 
standard. Since Microsoft is &quot;committed to providing Office users with 
greater choice among document formats and enhanced interoperability&quot; I 
also hope that Microsoft will soon start adding support for the upcoming ODF 
1.2 because ODF 1.2 was designed to improve and extend interoperability between 
different ODF implementations. For example, ODF 1.2 adds a formula language and 
a W3C standards based metadata model. Thus, ODF 1.2 should also make mapping 
Excel formulas to ODF easier. Anyway, &quot;Microsoft will join the 
Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) 
technical committee working on the next version of ODF&quot;. Thus, Microsoft's 
participation at OASIS should eliminate the worries and the inertia of people 
who were afraid of standardizing their document workflows on ODF in the past. 
With Microsoft's genuine participation in the ODF TC, ODF should evolve into a 
truly cross-plattform, cross-application and cross-vendor document format 
standard.
+&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
+Second, I have to congratulate all the early supporters and adopters of ODF, 
i.e. the larger ODF Community. The work, and in some cases the courage, of many 
many individuals has led to a &quot;market&quot; which can't be ignored by 
vendors any longer. According to &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;q=filetype%3Aodt&amp;btnG=Search&quot;&gt;Google
 searches for various file types&lt;/a&gt;, ODF is still the most popular XML 
document file format, at least based on the number of document files posted to 
the Web. OpenOffice.org, which is just one implementation of ODF, is currently 
being downloaded more than 1.2M times per week and being distributed by popular 
hardware products like the Asus Eee PC. Government organizations around the 
world are adopting OpenOffice.org and/or ODF and have started to help each 
other with their adoption challenges. Thus, ODF has become a &quot;market 
force&quot; that can't be ignored anymore. Thus, again, congratulations and 
thank you to all the people who have contributed to the success of 
OpenOffice.org and ODF so far! Well done!</content>

+       <link>http://blogs.sun.com/dancer/entry/huge_success_for_the_odf</link>
+       <content:encoded>First, I warmly welcome Microsoft to the community of 
ODF supporters. As most of you will have noticed by now, Microsoft &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://www.microsoft.com/Presspass/press/2008/may08/05-21ExpandedFormatsPR.mspx&quot;&gt;just
 announced&lt;/a&gt; that they will start supporting ODF out of the box with 
Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Office 2007. My favorite statement from the 
Microsoft announcement is the following promise: &quot;It will also allow 
customers to set ODF as the default file format for Office 2007.&quot; Thus, 
very soon it should be very easy for organizations to standardize their 
document workflows on ODF, because the &quot;average employee&quot; does not 
need any special skills for saving to ODF anymore. Very cool!
+&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
+Initially, Microsoft will support ODF 1.1 which is the most current OASIS 
standard. Since Microsoft is &quot;committed to providing Office users with 
greater choice among document formats and enhanced interoperability&quot; I 
also hope that Microsoft will soon start adding support for the upcoming ODF 
1.2 because ODF 1.2 was designed to improve and extend interoperability between 
different ODF implementations. For example, ODF 1.2 adds a formula language and 
a W3C standards based metadata model. Thus, ODF 1.2 should also make mapping 
Excel formulas to ODF easier. Anyway, &quot;Microsoft will join the 
Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) 
technical committee working on the next version of ODF&quot;. Thus, Microsoft's 
participation at OASIS should eliminate the worries and the inertia of people 
who were afraid of standardizing their document workflows on ODF in the past. 
With Microsoft's genuine participation in the ODF TC, ODF should evolve into a 
truly cross-plattform, cross-application and cross-vendor document format 
standard.
+&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
+Second, I have to congratulate all the early supporters and adopters of ODF, 
i.e. the larger ODF Community. The work, and in some cases the courage, of many 
many individuals has led to a &quot;market&quot; which can't be ignored by 
vendors any longer. According to &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;q=filetype%3Aodt&amp;btnG=Search&quot;&gt;Google
 searches for various file types&lt;/a&gt;, ODF is still the most popular XML 
document file format, at least based on the number of document files posted to 
the Web. OpenOffice.org, which is just one implementation of ODF, is currently 
being downloaded more than 1.2M times per week and being distributed by popular 
hardware products like the Asus Eee PC. Government organizations around the 
world are adopting OpenOffice.org and/or ODF and have started to help each 
other with their adoption challenges. Thus, ODF has become a &quot;market 
force&quot; that can't be ignored anymore. Thus, again, congratulations and 
thank you to all the people who have contributed to the success of 
OpenOffice.org and ODF so far! Well done!</content:encoded>
