I didn’t spot the date on this item (surprising it was indeed) although it came up in my feeds as news.

I also don’t buy Rob Weir’s witterings. The issue is that no app seems to output ISO standardised ODF; for all the technical talk about conformance, that basic issue remains.

Ideally you’d have the choice; ISO ODF by default, or ODF plus extensions.

Thanks for pointing that out.
