> http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/5153350.stm Surely an open format is still open to "interpretation" Lets take html, its open, its published, its standardised but IE manages to render it in such a way that is different to other browsers. If word does the same then a document will look fine in word but take it somewhere else and it will look wrong and the open source community will then be left trying to get bug for bug compatibility (or at least translation) so users can view these files as intended.
