Novell Makes OpenOffice MS Office-Friendly
Remember the brouhaha over Microsoft Office and whether it would or would not
support the OpenDocument format, which would allow files to be easily interchanged
with the open source OpenOffice and StarOffice?
Microsoft didn't take the OpenDoc bait and instead promoted a new file format,
OpenXML. Like stubborn kids fighting, someone eventually had to give in and,
in this case, it
was Novell, which is adding OpenXML to its version of OpenOffice.
