[odf-discuss] Sun's OpenDocument filter for MS office released

[Daniel Carrera]

Hello everyone,

It looks like Sun has made an initial release of their plugin for MS 
Office to read ODF files. It only supports text documents so far, no 
spreadsheets or presentations:

Does anyone know if this plugin requires a server-side copy of 
OpenOffice? Or does it work stand-alone? I don't have a copy of MS 
Office to test on.

Cheers,
Daniel.
