Abiword and Gnumeric might not be so tightly integrated as Koffice
counterparts (I say might because I don't know, I don't use them), but
they are still parts of what will be GNOME office suite.

I know, but if you look at my post again, you might notice I wasn't even
suggesting that([1]). I think it would be much better, if both (all)
could use the same format (sort of open format like html).

I'm really sorry, if my post sounded as complaining. It wasn't meant to.
I wasn't even asking anybody to write it.
