India Has Voted NO to OOXML (Groklaw)
There is a difference, in other words, between supporting XML, what you might call pro forma support, and supporting OOXML as a standard. For that matter, there is a difference between support for Microsoft Office 2007 and support for OOXML. They are not the same thing, so when OpenOffice.org announces native read and write support for Office 2007 documents, that is all it means. It doesn't mean OpenOffice.org supports OOXML as a standard. No matter what Microsoft folks try to tell you."
