Microsoft File Format Approved
The Microsoft OOXML (Open Office XML) file format is
now
an official standard.
As I recall, Microsoft proposed this format in response to the movement to
make the Open Office file format the main way to share documents. While I was
fine with the Open Office approach, any common file format is a step in the
right direction.
What about you -- which format would you rather see as a standard? And is file
interoperability already moving in the right direction? Answers welcome in any
format at [email protected].
