Any ebook that is being archived should really be saved as a simple txt file. That's what I do. Well, actually, I archive my stuff in Ascii txt. I really should switch over.

What Nate said!
Actually, I'm in favor of taking a step forward and declaring HTML a standardized format because it also includes formating cues, but it is still in ASCII. However, all of the code we work with today starts with Unicode. I'd consider it a standard, for sure. As long as data as stored starts in Unicode, programs can get the content back out.
