I agree with ODF formats for our documentation and then other versions
as needed latter. When they are made, when can state the where
saved/exported for the LO, plugging some of the other capabilities of
LO.
I would not use htiml unless someone cleans up the code. Most program
generated html I have seen is very difficult to follow, debug, and
maintain without someone cleaning it up. Ofteh I have found myself
redoing the pages with hand coding only.

Hi :)
+1
Except that i get over-excited about allowing people access easily so i fall
into rants about needing pdf too lol. Sorry about that Marc! I know Adobe and
MS both achieved market dominance partly through non-compliance but since they
achieved domination it's difficult to disrupt that. I think we have to pick
fights we can win first.

Tom :)
