Use of XQuery with ODF

Greetings!

Although forwarded to me by a vendor who makes one of the products 
mentioned in this article, this might be a useful data point.

XQuery Your Office Documents: Marc Van Cappellen

Might be a good starting point to show someone the very basics of why 
ODF (and other XML based office formats) can make a real difference.

Hope everyone is having a great day!
