Battle Lines in the Document Format Wars | Both Microsoft and the OpenDocument camp are forming alliances to promote their respective formats. |
|
Massachusetts goes with the OpenDocument | They mandate that all state organisations should use open standards for their documents, and specifically do <em>not</em> include upcoming MSOffice v12 XML formats. Wow. I think this is <em>great</em> news. |
|
Microsoft Office to support OpenDocument | Microsoft has announced that they will support the OpenDocument file format in MSOffice 2007. While I thought it was inevitable, it is still a gutsy move by Microsoft. |
|
OpenDocument ratified by ISO | The OpenDocument file format (ODF) was ratified by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). |
|
OpenDocument v1.0 Released | OASIS, the international e-business standards consortium, announced that its members have approved the Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) v1.0 as an OASIS Standard. |
|
Sun to offer online conversion of MSWord to OpenDocument | Sun announced an online service to convert files from MSOffice/MSWord's proprietary formats to the new OpenDocument format. This is actually from November 2006 and I haven't seen anything else about it. It sounds like it is primarily to promote their new grid computing initiative and that there may be a cost associated with it. I am working on a similar service, which will be free (at least for smaller files). Via Richard MacManus. |
