Despite their public opposition to Microsoft;s attempt to obtain the ISO standardization nod for its Office Open XML (OOXML) document format, IBM and Google quietly are supporting OOXML.That;s according to two weblog postings from your finish of last week by Microsoft execs involved inside the OOXML vs. Open Document Format (ODF) requirements battle.In a blog publish entitled, “Speaking of odd contradictions … ” Gray Knowlton, Microsoft Group Product Manager of the Workplace technical product management team, cited IBM;s support for OOXML in two products: IBM DB2 Content Manager v8.4 and IBM Websphere Portal. A company spokeswoman said Microsoft also had discovered IBM is supporting OOXML in its IBM Lotus Quickr team-collaboration product, as well as in IBM DB2 9 pureXML.Workplace Program Manager Brian Jones, meanwhile,
Office Professional 2010 Serial Key, noted that another major ODF proponent,
Microsoft Office 2010 Upgrade Key, Google, is allowing Google searchers to view OOXML files saved in .docx,
Office Pro 2010 Activation, .xlsx and .pptx. within the browser using their own rendering technologies.“They support all three formats, and the results are pretty rich (surprisingly richer than what they provide for ODF files),” Jones blogged.However,
Microsoft Office 2010 Home And Student Product Key, hAI, one commenter on Jones; post, wasn;t convinced that Jones; discovery constituted true Google support for OOXML:“It looks like only XLSX files are supported that way and not DOCX files yet.“Also it seems that Google search with filetype:docx is still missing a lot of files that I can find workings links to, using Live search contains:docx search parameter.“Anyways Brain, why does Google support the filetype:docx search parameter whilst your own Live search still does not.”What;s your take? Are IBM and Google talking out of both sides of their mouths,
Microsoft Office 2010 Pro Key, when it comes to their “OOXML is evil” claims? Or is Microsoft increasingly grasping at straws, as the late February ISO vote on OOXML standardization inches closer?
