This blog post covers the main presentation from our ODF workshop that took place in Redmond last week: Peter Amstein’s explanation of the guiding principles behind our support of ODF in Office 2007 SP2. I’ve added explanations of some of the details that were covered verbally in the workshop, but if anything’s not clear here, please let me know.

High level bull droppings
This nonsense is still worth a read to see the sad state of M$ development.
He attempts to explain why M$ are using ODF 1.1 for SP2, and fails to do so.
Then he boasts that they have managed to get italics working between OOXML and ODF 1.1.
Nice one, boys. You might all manage to pass Software Development:101, by the end of the year, and you might even get OOXML and ODF 1.1 working after some sort of a fashion by the time Vista SP13 is released.
The rest of the time he seems to spend complaining about the obsolete version of ODF that they illogically decided to implement with their junk OOXML format.
Would you buy a used OS off people like these?
Don't hold your breathe till Office gets ODF working properly.
