There is. It is called OpenDocument (by OASIS). Tzafrir already
pointed you to the Massachusetts decision to use it. It is
supported by OpenOffice (2.0 and 1.1.5), Koffice and is making
its way into Abiword and Gnumeric.

You can keep saying there is no solution (because it's not
100% perfect) and stay with your current options (which are
far from perfect) or switch once and for all (like most people
here have done long ago).

Staying with MS products while whining about being locked to
their solutions is.... (i'll let you choose your own term for this).
