| I don't think that KOffice MS-Office filters will reach OOo level quickly, and probably never. There are few people working on it, and the main goal of the KOffice people seems to be great support of the ODF standard and interoperability with office suites than use it, and not reverse-engineering proprietary obfuscated file formats. And I can't blame them. |

For better or worse, OpenOffice is the only option that you have then.
