What kinds of content are those? Is there something unique about the
Abiword format that makes it other than an XML-based WP format? The
IETF is pretty much concerned with on-the-wire protocols and, to a
very limited extent, other sorts of interoperability. Application
file formats are of little standardization interest to the IETF as a
body.
