RTF Reader in Rev

Just a suggestion:

There is an excellent  open source Word compatible WP - Abiword 
(http:\\www.abisource.com)  - reads, writes and prints Word Docs  
runs on 
GNU/Linux, BSD, Solaris (2.6, 7,8,9), AIX, HP/UX (10.20, 11.0), 
OSF/1, Tru64, Mac OS X,QNX,BeOS oh and I nearly forgot Windows.

Perhaps Word will not be the de facto corporate standard for ever? 
Especially, since the file format does not remain the same!
