Dear Sirs,
I really like Open Office, but on some of my older computers, Open
Office uses to much resources, so on those computers I have started to
use Abiword. (Another opensource word processor.) Abiword has a plugin
for reading/writing ODT files, but Open office doesn't have the ability
to read/write ABW files. (At least I could not find it.) As it's file
format is opensource, could you not easily add support for that file
format as well? We complain about Microsoft not opening it's file
format, yet we don't use all the open formats that are available. Is
that right? (BTW, I have suggested to Abiword that they put the ODT
support into the main code instead of a plugin. They said that it would
take alot of work. With both your and their software being opensource
and freely available, I can not see how it should be that hard.
Sincerely,
Eric G Rothoff
