    The Service Pack 2 of Office 2007 to be released next year will read files ODF 1.1. Problem: OpenOffice.org 3.0 and KOffice 2.0 use the new format ODF 1.2 from September 2008. There should be interoperability problems between ODF 1.1 used in Office 2007 SP2 and ODF 1.2 used in OOo 3.0 KOffice 2.0?
