This fine, but fwiw, I couldn't find this page doing a quick google  
search, and it's not listed from the Wikipedia page, http:// 
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument_adoption#References_4, which is  
where a lot of people will doubtless go; nor is it referenced,  
afaics, from ODF Alliance.

I'll happily change my listing to this opendocument.xml page on the  
OOo wiki, but let's also try to get others on the same page--literally.
