Why not simple add a Word output to the existing project? You also created a new schema, which is almost the same, but not quite.
I don't understand the purpose of re-inventing the wheel here. The other project has dozens of contributors, I'm going to assume it stays up to date more.

Edit: I see your product does actually integrate with theirs. Still seems like it could have all been one product, though. I don't understand what you mean by "an open source alternative."
- hashhar 10y agoI agree with what you say. These days I see a lot of projects which could've simply benefited both themselves and others by contributing code to the original project which they re-implemented.
