Ximian and Open Office

OpenOffice.org
OpenOffice.org

There has been lots of speculation on what Ximian has been doing with Open Office in prepartion for the GNOME 2 based version of Ximian Desktop. Well Michael Meeks made the slides from his presentation at the Open Office conference in Germany available, which details some of the changes done by Ximian.
You find the slides here.

Re: Ximian and Open Office

You are assuming too much about the user. You assume that the user understands the difference between the formats. Most users assume that there is one format for documents and not three.
