As OASIS is a recognized international standards body, calling OpenDocument an "international standard" is entirely legitimate.

Of the major office software suites, only Microsoft has explicitly rejected OpenDocument support, although it still may become available for MS-Office through a third-party filter. -- John ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
