Not sure if > that is true, Compatibility depends upon how much loss one is willing to undergo, with respect to: * Content; * Presentation Markup; * Semantic Markup; * Other types of Markup; Rephrased: a) Willing to lose everything but content; b) Willing to lose everything but content and presentation markup; c) Unwilling to lose content, presentation markup, semantic markup, or other types of markup; A not so minor issue is that the MSO *x file formats, and OOXML file formats are two dissimilar file formats, that, at first glance, appear to be identical. IOW, even if AOO has perfect OOXML file format compatibility, it means squat, in terms of MSO *x file format compatibility. jonathon -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJUwDzAAAoJEKG7hs8nSMR7iUAP/31ErlZOEe6oIXrTpkhnbxOf VsThkzm1k67oVlJNclAyXE5yifxJINK3bDlT3cnM6O5WOWhqIaSdPKWUU4wbWHOb 67XeuIBV6XCi4gnLU1WZIE7t4RU1DjXPo35xkPT2uucLPszBVSXaS5yskWKxk9iS G6pgH5V6OwqdJ+T6ip4g+XBmvzSVqwc52gk8eqPLNPWmZb873qn8D/xTRwlnVTU0 y913nH6f/o9wfJpH4xZ+lu8SF8uVhV0t6X2a4x2NLMCE9OFT7/CC44ogDwpF3SnC 12Mn/ytY62VyEo3MOw7BM2nR6jAVOk14ls1INX8j2GhwM1uOysLJJyNScjjBssdY Y7qnS5ICgGGPpw8uux6MDVH1RLW7FONi7r75x6lfp4oIJHSwuWWfc5smoKe1hXms bLSVgvJKUrkcpbJNav9XFE5inXSapdHJ5AKYm4XKxx54Qiu2ffLeWEYUSKLiMUqK AcU7dm0eaCyKRZPUwkZSFOZnrJpU3CjH/BUfqGtcFZNBT9EuyJSbzzQztcFTPPO+ pbXl8wbcbyr8TRv2s5JkIZOV7KRTBardmGrngffqYrCq6tLP0IO5enP8+uyzYqRb GDq9LBxPhQNZ6tu911k1mIVD1jHQbL9OEnh99Ysy8yJDu9Tdu1fZEcYfymITPO1g bAX+M0GSk8JUKsSDjyjZ =1tbU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
