OOXML Fails to Gain Approval in US

07/16/2007  
Relevance: 5.91
On Friday July 13th, INCITS V1 met via teleconference for 3 hours but failed to reach a 2/3 consensus necessary to recommend an"Approval, with comments" position on Microsoft"Office Open XML" (OOXML) document specification. An important factor in the V1 vote was the large number of members who joined very late in the process. There was a clear pattern in the voting where the long-time V1 members voted for the"Disapproval, with comments" position as well as"Abstention, with comments" while the newer members voted overwhelmingly"Yes, with comments" and against"Abstention with comments." This is not surprising since the new members were largely Microsoft business partners.[Not about Linux, but likely to be of interest to our readers— Sander]
