"Currently, Buzzword will export documents to Word format and XML, and Adobe has promised support for Open Office format "

Okay, so admittedly we're used to referring to different forms of serialisation as file formats but they are *data* formats. But we demand more from El Reg! This is important for XML which is not a file format, nor even a data format, being a mere markup standard: the file format is text and the data format being the relevant schema; XML without a schema is quite simply meaningless. The really important thing being that both OO.org and MS Office use XML but they have different schemas.

Back to the technology: AIR is going to be very interesting and possibly even useful!
