MS to Open Its Office Formats? -- 7:38 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

According to the Financial Times Microsoft will be opening up the file formats for Office. Naturally, I'm skeptical. The Devil is in the details. How open is open? Nevertheless, I must cautiously take this as good news. If MS does truly allow anyone to use its file formats and the file structure is out in the open, this will be a Good Thing. It's definitely a story to keep an eye on. Thanks Slashdot.
