Agreed MS 97-2003 .doc is NOT a moving target. Back in 2008 when we were considering moving from MSO 2003 to OO or SoftMaker Office, SoftMaker had near perfect MSO import filters. 5 years later, and only 3 of the 14 .doc import bugs that I filed with OO (now on AOO tracker) have been fixed. It's too bad the Oracle didn't take OO under their wings. With their resources they could have turned it into a true competitor to MSO. As it stands now, volunteers enjoy adding new features not bug fixing or scouring the 200 page OpenXML spec. sheet.
