Adding to my own post. You must have missed these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenOffice.org_XML http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.1/OS/OpenDocument-v1.1-html/OpenDocument-v1.1.html http://www.oasis-open.org/who/trademark.php Basically the above links show that Sun Microsystems developed the original format for StarOffice and put it in OpenOffice.org and then as the lead writers for OASIS took it and developed it into what it is now. So your idea and any information that you have is wrong. -- http://24.197.142.167/ See the OpenOffice.org FAQ Microsoft users go to http://www.pclinuxos.com for a great user friendly Linux experience! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
