plug-in progress

News over at Groklaw states that the OpenDocument Foundation has built a plug-in for Microsoft Office that will allow the proprietary program to open and save files in OpenDocument format.

Wow.

<sarcasm>
Microsoft must be elated. They have people working for non-profit foundations writing tools to make Microsoft software more powerful and flexible! One wonders...will Microsoft donate a small sum to the foundation for their work?
