> Why is LO focussing on both MS formats and ODF? The answer is very simple: The people developing it are focussing (to some extent) on that, because that is what they want to work on. Or what their customers pay them to work on. There is no central LO organisation that would decide what others (companies or individuals) should work on. You are very welcome to join and start working on ODF only, for instance. (But you are not welcome to join and start removing code for MS formats.) --tml
