[ANN] Is the Sky Falling and the End Near for Open Source?
I found this interesting article. It also has a reference to Cocoon. So
this is why I sent it to the list. ;)

I guess point of the article was not exactly about "embrace" part but
about "extend". How OpenOffice or, for this matter, Word2000/97/95 will
open DRM-enabled docs from Word11? And how Word2000 will run these
embedded controls going into backend database?
PS I have not seen Word11 so I might be talking nonsense

I have been playing around with the Word11 beta and don't see it as a vendor
lock in situation. For example, I just had a client dump all the content to
me in big Word2000 files. I open them in Word 11 and save them as Word's
proprietary XML and then run some transformations on them to pull out
individual content pieces from the larger documents. Word XML is easy to
convert to some other XML format.
On the other hand if you start out with your own document structure you can
use an XML Schema in Word (enterprise version...) and thereby stay away from
Word's XML. You can even assign a CSS for styling. So you have a vendor
agnostic solution.
