Unfortunately, this means that most user-created documents going to

But if not, which is the better choice -- XP or OOXML? Unless I can be
fairly sure OOXML will be more satisfactory, I'll still recommend XP.
But I'm willing to be convinced to recommend (very reluctantly) OOXML.
Is there any way to assess this, or will we just have to wait and see?


I know is a pain, but is really a case by case issue.

There's some very encouraging information elsewhere in this thread about test documents that alreadyexist for this. I think we may have a plan going soon!
