Well, I don't totally agree with you on this. I don't think opendocuments
matters at all. I sincerely doubt it will ever take off. It is, and likely
will remain, a geek-only format on two office suites, one of which is locked
on a geek-mostly very small market share operating system. Maybe I'm wrong.
It'd be nice if I was. But whatever, doesn't really matter to me.
SNIP. ...
Well here is where I disagree with you Chad. I do not think the opendocuments format is "geeky". The
problem I see with OOo relates to where it is used and who it is exposed to. I feel that once the Biblio thing is
straigned out that OOo will get more exposure in academia and takeoff with academisians and professionals. They will
become use to using it in school and probably continue to use it after graduation. The folks promoting the
"OpenDocument" format [I do believe it is a worthy cause] need to somehow get the concept out to the general
population. They need to do some PR that goes past the so called "geeks" so the average
"non-geek" person can see the value and economics of the issue.
Just my 2Cents on this. :-)
