I still think there can be only one interop format - I think Chris put it very well.
I didn't make quite that strong a statement! It's fine to have multiple interop formats but you can't have *optional* interop formats. Clients can't rely on anything optional: they have to use one of the compulsory renderings if they want their code to be portable across cloud providers.
Maybe we are talking about different things. I am talking about the format for the data exchanged between client and cloud.
Cheers,
