While at the iSummit, I realized that it would be good to do
a survey of
the primary office file formats for metadata and
development. Thus, I
created a three pages so that we can build up the knowledge
around these
file formats in order to push development along the lines of
Microsoft's
plugin for Microsoft Office which allows for CC licensing of
content
created within Microsoft Office.

Wouldn't it be great to have other plugins for other apps
as well?

Please take a peek at these pages and add examples and
knowledge which
we (in the community) can use to hopefully build other
plugins for other
applications which might use these file formats to add CC
license and
metadata.

Oh, btw, OpenDocument and the new Microsoft XML formats use
dublin core
metadata, which we already have documented on how to add
licensing and
metadata.

I did not mean to exclude any office document file formats.
I just
wanted to get the ball rolling.
