The thing is though, when you do a web search for ooxml, the top link (at
least in Ireland) is this:

"
Office Open XML (OOXML) is an XML-based file format used for representing
word processing documents, spreadsheets, and presentations. It is
conceptually similar to ODF in many respects, though a lot of the details
differ.Jul 24, 2014

Office Open XML - Apache OpenOffice Wiki

https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Office_Open_XML
"

So, by that definition, docx is not ooxml and ./dfconvert tells me that:

$ ./dfconvert --help
Usage:

dfconvert get concrete.docx abstract.html

    Create a new HTML file from a Word document. The HTML file must not
    already exist.

So, that makes me think that we should have docx and ooxml directories, but
that docx should not live in ooxml?
