Hi,
The above debate is very interesting but to a large extent it reminds me of the angels on the pin debate of lore.
I would love to see ebooks in OpenReader but let us see them. I would love to see ebooks in the IDPF standard but let us see them.
Right now I see lit (my proprietary format of choice), prc, pdf, smaller market prop formats, and html/rtf/txt as open formats
As far as I can see the current opf format is pretty rarely used as such these days though it may be used to create books in the above proprietary formats.
I read some opf books with Fbreader on Nokia and I like the interactivity in short stories magazines/books (as of now I bought over 30 of emagazines/short story collections, I subscribe to easimov's and plan to subscribe to efsf when my print subscription runs out)
Liviu
