Take a deep breath, there is a huge fist fight brewing in government
back rooms.. Seems as if there may have been some deals going on to
convince the world that we should trust a corporate company for an
International standard. The author of this article wisely notes:<br>
<blockquote><span>&quot;It is already spinning &quot;open standard&quot; to
mean &quot;closed format heavily protected by secrets and patents&quot;. Free
software won&#39;t be able to implement OOXML, and users will be locked-in
to Microsoft&#39;s proprietary world for decades. It&#39;s a clever abuse of
the standards process.</span>&quot;<br>
