To make it even easier for third party conversion of Binary
Format-to-DIS 29500, Microsoft agreed to:
* Initiate a Binary Format-to-ISO/IEC JTC 1 DIS 29500 Translator
Project on the open source software development web site SourceForge
(http://sourceforge.net/ ) in collaboration with independent software
vendors. The Translator Project will create software tools, plus
guidance, showing how a document written using the Binary Formats can
be translated to DIS 29500. The Translator will be available under
the open source Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) license, and
anyone can use the mapping, submit bugs and feedback, or contribute to
the Project.
What involvement might we wish to have in this?
cheers
Jason
