Brill,
> What's wrong with plain text?
No font control, no formatting, no universal end-of-line marker standard, no
automatic page numbers, no automatic headers and footers, no spell checking, no
spreadsheets, no editable diagrams.
Every time we publish a new version of the spec I do not want to have to copy a
.txt version of it into a formatting tool. It seems much cleaner to me to just
put it under format control from day one with diagrams etc. constantly in
place.
Aside from this, the main reason I proposed openoffice was that it uses XML
file formats that work well in a CVS (CVS does not like binary file formats).
