Soured Relationships
"What's happened is that there's just not a lot of interest in their approach, and that has resulted in a lot of souring of relationships on the part of the OpenDocument Foundation folks," Douglas Johnson, standards manager at Sun Microsystems (Nasdaq: JAVA) 
, told LinuxInsider.
The about-face in support should not have a significant effect on the move toward open standards, Johnson added.
The OpenDocument Foundation's decision to support CDF, however, is puzzling, Johnson said.
'I'm Perplexed'
"It doesn't seem like a good fit," he explained. "It's not designed for this, so I'm perplexed at their desire to go in that direction."
