as a disadvantage, this will require a full working copy of
OpenOffice.org installed.
i know Inkscape use the same method for importing other file types, but
if we consider OpenOffice as a dependency, this is a *huge* one.
Wait people, the article was about the OpenDocument format, not OOo.
They are different animals. And OpenDocument woudl be hurt a lot if people
start associating it with OpenOffice.org. That's part of the reasonf or
the name change. OpenDocument is a separate thing, independent of OOo, and
bigger than OOo or KDE or any current supporter. Yes, the OOo format was
used as a starting point for OpenDocument, but OpenDocument didn't stay
there. I has been expanded, modified and edited with the goal of being a
neutral, extensive format that different applications can support.
