There isn't--same as with ODF, which is why Sun's license includes this:
This statement is not an assurance either (i) that any of Sun's
issued patents cover an OpenDocument Implementation or are
enforceable, or (ii) that an OpenDocument Implementation would not
infringe patents or other intellectual property rights of any third
party.
Roy continues picking for his anti-OOXML FUD things that are flaws in
both ODF and OOXML. Why not pick things that are flaws in OOXML but are
fine in ODF?
