Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Shall we waste twelve more years promoting Free office suites instead of...

As far as I can gather, neither OASIS nor the ODF Technical Committee
require a reference implementation, so none has been named. I don't
know about the ISO standard, but I would assume this applies there too.

That said, OO.o/LO would be considered by most as the reference
implementation. As a "reference implementation", there generally isn't
going to be more than one (otherwise, which one would you refer to when
they differed?).

However, here is a list of software implementing the format:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument_software

As a side note, the competing MS format also doesn't have a reference
implementation. The only implementation that I am aware of is MSO,
which, being proprietary, cannot be a reference, as nobody (other than
MSO themselves) can see the code. And it has much bigger problems than
just a lack of a reference implementation.
