Another day, another complaint about Microsoft from LibreOffice. This time, LibreOffice accuses Microsoft of intentionally using overly complex XML to define documents and lock in users.
OOXML is essentially an XML-ified dump of MS Office internal data structures, that Microsoft then minimally documented and bribed ECMA to “certify” as a “standard.” It’s absolute horseshit that nobody should buy into.
