OpenDocument Now Published ISO Standard

OpenDocument Now Published ISO Standard. This is the word processing document format used by OpenOffice which aims to break the format lock-in of the mighty Microsoft Office. By achieving ISO certification it can now be implemented into any software product without royalties. It’s a small step, but hopefully it’ll help wider adoption and convince organisations and governments that they should store their documents in this format, rather than Microsoft’s proprietary document.
