OASIS OpenDocument is an upgrade of the open XML OASIS-based file format that has been available in OpenOffice.org and StarOffice since 2000. OpenDocument has therefore met the equivalent of testing, refinement, and improvement in developmental and usage settings for over five years now. OpenDocument is available in OpenOffice.org 1.1.5 and OpenOffice.org 2 (beta), both of which are fully supported in the open source community, and by independent software developers around the world.
There are also several other implientations, such as KOffice, Abiword (via plugin) among others. While these are obviously much newer, they are also undergoing constant testing, which probably amounts to more than what MS Office gets before it's rolled out the door.
