Hi everyone,
Not sure if people have seen this or not already. It looks like
Microsoft is presently in the process of patenting the use of XML for
"Word Processing" files in many countries (US, EU, etc). If they're

If you followed the links I think you will find that the patent actually
covers editing and parsing which would impact SPF directly.
