I never heard that Massachussetts got anything from the ODF foundation
that was testable. Do you have some information about this? I would be
very interested to hear more.
I would be too. I have no contacts (that I know of) with the Foundation
and read about the plug-in through news and press releases. Last autumn,
several sources were reporting that the plug-in was being tested.
I don't know why they make this such a big secret.
I expect that the reason is to keep M$ from moving the goal posts as the
project nears completion. That's a common risk for many projects, even
those that present less of a threat to M$ continued profitability than
data format independence. However, that's just speculation.
