One more step in the right direction, native ODF support in Office 2007 SP2

Did’ya see dat! I am pretty exited about these developments, As soon as these this is out I want to play with it and see how can this feature be utilized in Office Programmability scenarios

Are you surprised ? WHY ? It’s fairly consistent with our idea of promoting & encouraging freedom of choice.

Also, Microsoft will join the OASIS ODF Technical Committee, and users will be able to set ODF to be the default format in their Office Applications.
