  • Matt,

    the protection against patent is actually very real. It comes from MS via Novell. Remember that Novell and MS are working on "interoperability" following their agreement and that part of this work entails working on an ODF-OOXML converter together. In essence, MS IP can be found and claimed by MS if this converter or parts of it was to find its way inside OOo; it's already the case with OOo Novell Edition, and could also be true with OOo "vanilla".
