The news of OpenOffice.org's third major release has generated quite a bit of buzz on the internet for many reasons, one of which being that it now runs natively on a Mac (sans X11). ZDnet has posted a screenshot gallery of OpenOffice.org 3.0 for those who have yet to try the hot-off-the-press application.

True, hopefully Office 2007 will come out which will mean out of the box ODT/ODF support.
You can of course get out of the box ODT/ODF support with OpenOffice right now.
I have been told that Office 2007 SP2 (which is apparently available now) also implements ODT/ODF support ... although I haven't heard any assesment of it in any report or review so far, so I cannot comment on how reliable or compliant it is.

Of course, but *I SAID* that *OFFICE 2007* WILL GET IT SOON. Do you have problems understanding basic English? Dear god, what is it with people here having problem understanding basic English?

You heard that from me, I didn't have the time to reply back, and then forgot about it. SP2 isn't out yet, it'll be out in 2-3 months. I got confused with SP1, which has been out for awhile (and I never really get open office docs so it isn't a big thing for me)
ODF 1.1 and PDF 1.5 should be fully supported. IMO PDF support is a much bigger thing then ODF, since it seems to mean they are just giving up with pushing XPS as a serious format.

Well, when I heard 'collaborators', I assumed they were work colleagues.
