Hi Dee,
I can't speak for IBM, KDE, Google, and others, but Sun would support
an ODF interop demo at XML 2007.
Whilst continuing to sabotage high fidelity round trip interop at every turn on the ODF Office TC and the Metadata SC and continuing to falsely advertise that Sun has achieved non-lossy round trip interop with Microsoft Office. ("Microsoft Office users now can have seamless two-way conversion of Microsoft Office documents to and from Open Document.")

The big vendors on the TC all know that ODF interoperability, whether amongst ODF apps or between them and Microsoft Office is demonstrably a public relations myth. The Adoption TC behaves irresponsibly in its perpetuation of that myth.
