Hi :) Thanks Alex! I guess we would rather have devs working on more widely used stuff. It's always possible to put these ideas forwards possibly for Extensions and just see if that sparks a new dev into working on LibreOffice. I was wondering if there was already an Extension for OpenOffice or something lurking around some long forgotten corner of the internet but i guess the original poster would have already tried googling for that sort of thing.
I found the link that i keep losing http://blog.freedomsponsors.org/about/ but if Apple are no longer supporting their own formats then i doubt anyone else will be keen to!
