	ONLamp.com -- What Is OpenDocument (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Office suite applications, as always, need a file format that is designed to organize the data when it moves away from the application.
		Having an file format standard (a single standard, because having more than one is an oxymoron) is important, as it's optimal to have multiple software vendors and projects competing on price and features to provide office suite products designed from that standard.
		The ideal for a standard file format is one that is open, accessible to everyone, and that can be implemented in any kind of software--whether of the commercial type, or of the Free Software or open source type.
