Hi~ All, Since Office 2007 Microsoft has defaulted to saving files in OOXML format. And soon, in April, Microsoft will stop supporting Office 2003, the last version of Office to write the binary format by default. So it becomes more and more important for AOO to have capability to support OOXML file format in order to help these users who need to work with OOXML files. AOO already has some capabilities for OOXML file import, but it needs many improvements. We have some pilot code for enabling OOXML export, developed by De Bin, Jian Yuan, Sun Ying, Jin Long... Although it still has some ways to go before ready for production, we'd like to contribute it first to AOO for further development so that more developers can work on the framework and continuously contribute their works. Since it still has many feature gaps, we propose to put it on a branch firstly, and continue to enhance it, and integrate it into a release only when we see it ready.
