Once More unto the Breach: Office Open XML Conformance (A Lesson in Claiming Standards ... - 0 views

    • Gary Edwards
       
      Presentation fidelity and round tripping? Looks like someone has been attention to what happened in Massachusetts.
  • As far as I can tell in the Massachusetts poster-child case, ODF has simply come to mean whatever OpenOffice.org does
    • Gary Edwards
       
      Keep in mind orchmid that it is the OpenOffice code base that ODF is bound to. There are many instances of the OOo code base pushed by various vendors. Sun provides OpenOffice.org and StarOffice versions of the code base. Novell Open Office is the same code base. Same with Red Hat Office and IBM WorkPlace. Outside this common code base, ODF has near ZERO interoperability.
  •  
    unfortunately the MS argument that support for OOXML equals "conformance" is also the same argument used by OpenDocument supporters to prove multi vendor, multi platform, multi application support.

A Standard Form of Confusion - 0 views

  • For the first time in decades, major IT users are challenging the traditional proprietary formats used by software programs.
  •  
    Great article by Evan Leibovitch.  His approach to the issue of MS Ecma 376 is refreshingly different in that he sees the success of OpenDocument as a user challenge to years of softwware vendor control: 

    "For the first time in decades, major IT users are challenging the traditional proprietary formats used by software programs...."

    Evan goes on to sight Rob Weirs blog as evidence that MS Ecma 376 continues the long traditon of vendor control through the binidng of file formats to proprietary applications.
