Beginning of the end of Microsoft dominance?
Authored by: Anonymous onSaturday, September 24 2005 @ 07:52 MDT
Actually, MS is a step ahead of you on this one I think. You will find that more and more Microsoft is moving towards using XML as a descriptor for most of their data. The releases of office slated to coincide with Longhorn (if it ever releases) are supposed to use XML as the data file format descriptor.

If MS is able to provide XML DTD's for their data file formats, they will have (theoretically) complied with these demands for "open standards" application. We'll see if this actually comes to pass.

No matter how much you might loathe the "evil empire", you can't accuse them of standing still.
