I see nothing wrong with this, and I applaud them.
Those that want to use MS products can, those that want to use something else can. That's the way it should be. Open standards where ALL manufacturers can play is best for everyone (except maybe for Microsoft, but too bad). I _personally_ feel that file formats should not be protectable via copyright, but that's just me :) TL |
