Microsoft and Novell unfold collaboration roadmap
Posted on 13 Feb 2007 at 08:56
At the start of February, Microsoft announced its first Open XML/ODF Translator the 2007, XP and 2003 versions of Office, though the forthcoming Novell translator is currently restricted to Word documents. Both companies have begun work on providing support for spreadsheets and presentations.
Jaffe said that the latest initiatives demonstrate the company's commitment to interoperability.
'The majority of our customers have mixed-source environments, and they want their platform vendors to take responsibility for making things work together,' he said. 'That's what our technical collaboration agreement with Microsoft is all about. We're working together to deliver true interoperability between Windows and SUSE Linux Enterprise, and we are standing together behind our products and our customers.'
