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.
Ah, thanks for the correction. You can see the point of confusion
though, in that something to do with office document file formats that
is prefixed with 'Open' could easily be assumed to be a subset of
OpenOffice.org. You may need to be reminding people about this for some
time to come...
