Office 2007SP2 ODF Interoperability Very Bad

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the are-you-really-surprised dept.

David Gerard writes "Microsoft Office 2007 SP2 claims support for ODF 1.1. With hard work and careful thinking, they have successfully achieved technical compliance but zero interoperability! MSO 2007sp2 won't read ODF 1.1 from any other existing application, and its ODF is only readable by the CleverAge plugin. The post goes into detail as to how it manages this so thoroughly."

    Oh no you didn't just link *that* site on Slashdot. All I can say is it's a good job you posted anonymously. :-)
