Dough Mahugh (Microsoft) :
Next week's XML 2007 conference in Boston features speakers from all sides of the document format debate, including a document interop session with Miguel de Icaza (Novell) and Vijay Rajagopalan (Microsoft) that I expect will offer a lively discussion around Open XML, ODF, and XML-based interoperability in general.
All sides of the debate?
Craig Kitterman (Microsoft) kindly posted the list for that interoperability session:
