								## Open Specifications Promise

								Lotus released their "Worksheet File Format" documentation into the Public

								Domain.  Microsoft opted for the "Open Specifications Promise", a covenant not
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								to sue.  The documentation that falls under the promise are listed below.
