    When someone tells me not to be concerned about something, I look around for someone trying to sell me something.

    Having worked on a few document repositories and document conversion projects, I have to say that documents stored in an open and standard format have a much better chance of surviving conversion. Whether it is for display only, or converting a whole repository to a new standard format, too much work goes into the process to ignore the consequences of a document format choice.

    Stating that it doesn't really matter, to me, sounds ignorant.
