The OpenDocument Foundation, a little-known industry group that was originally created to promote the OpenDocument Format (ODF), has closed its doors after controversially dropping support for ODF in favor of an obscure W3C format.http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20071113-opendocument-foundation-closes-up-shop-after-slamming-opendocument-format.html

What is your take on this - do you have some thoughts on what it will happen to ODF itself. Will it end up as a SUN-only format with CDF as the "new kid on the block" with broad support?
I will not go into this discussion with you here.
I'll refer to Robert Weir: http://www.robweir.com/blog/2007/11/document-formats-guide-for-perplexed.html
What ... a blogger that doesn't want to talk?
That's new - isn't it?
I'm not asking about Rob's opinion, Leif - I'm asking for your opinion. Personally, I think CDF sounds better in terms of compatability with the existing world ... but what do you think?
