Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] Re: Update on roundtrip: wordml to docbook


Mathieu,

we are working on a Document Standards Interoperability Framework that 
includes roundtrips from DITA, DocBook and ODF (eventually MS Office 
Open XML).

Details are now available in a whitepaper at:
http://www.flatironssolutions.com/downloads/Interoperability_Framework.pdf

We are also looking to bring this to OASIS as a full TC, and are 
currently working on a charter for this effort.

Flatirons Solutions has developed a set of initial working transforms 
for this effort as well.

Best regards,

--Scott
