== History ==
OpenDocument format (ISO/IEC 26300:2006) is based on OpenOffice.org XML and these formats are very similar in many technical areas.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://xml.openoffice.org/general.html |title=OpenOffice.org XML File Format |accessdate=2010-03-27}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.file-extensions.org/sxw-file-extension |title=file extension SXW - OpenOffice.org Writer document |accessdate=2010-03-27}}</ref> However, OpenDocument is not the same as the older OpenOffice.org XML format and these formats are not directly compatible.
 
StarOffice developers and later OpenOffice.org project members adopted XML to replace the old binary StarOffice file format. The goal was to have a complete specification encompassing all StarOffice (later OpenOffice.org) components, and to provide an open standard for office documents. The draft version of OpenOffice.org XML specification was also known as '''StarOffice XML File Format'''.<ref>{{citation |url=http://xml.coverpages.org/openoffice-xml_specification_draft200012.pdf |format=PDF |title=StarOffice XML File Format Working Draft, Technical Reference Manual, Draft 9, December 2000 |yeardate=December 2000 |month=December |accessdateaccess-date=2010-08-08}}</ref>
 
The stated goal in the draft was:
 
{{quotation|Our goal is twofold: to have a complete specification encompassing all StarOffice components, and to provide an open standard for office documents.}}
