Open XML is a subject that is hot at the moment in the blogosphere and on the news wires.  I've blogged about it before and in this video I talked to Darren Strange, the UK Product Manager for the 2007 Microsoft Office System. Darren and I discuss what Open XML is, why people are talking about it at the moment and also why our partner should care.

I'm not going to write much about what the deal is with Open XML because I think Darren articulates it very well in the video.

For more resources I would recommend checking out Darren's blog, the official Microsoft stance on Open XML.  There's also more information and a petition you can sign on this website.
