I will not support or use LibreOffice
until it stops helping spread OOXML by enabling writing in this file format. There is absolutely no need to write in this proprietary format. To do so is contrary to the principle of using ODF and open source formats.

See the following:

Unless this changes I will strongly advocate in the support groups I participate the people stay with OpenOffice.org and not switch to LibreOffice.


The answer to ALL this nonsense is surely this.
If you receive an OOXML document, politely reply to the sender and request that they send it in another format, explaining why.
And BTW, the latest Open Office ALSO supports writing to OOXML format...
