Hi, As you know Google currently is not supporting Open Document Format native in its services. Today i saw this article http://www.muktware.com/4529/why-google-killing-open-document-formats#.UTYr7U44lHE.twitter and remembered this issue.
This article explains the situation quite well. I don't know the reason why Google does not support ODF, maybe it was discussed here before. But i think we may try to push Google to support ODF. I don't think there is a reasonable explanation for ignoring ODF and supporting MS Office formats and forcing people to convert their ODF to Google Docs format. Btw for comparasion, -yes not Skydrive of course- Yandex company with growing popularity in Turkey and Russia supports ODF in its Disk service. It may be an example for good aproach to ODF. What do you think about Google's positioning for ODF? Can we manage to force/attract Google to support ODF? I've mentioned and asked htps://twitter.com/cdibona about this matter but no replies yet Best regards, Zeki - http://support.google.com/drive/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2423485 -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
