[odf-discuss] [Fwd: EC studying the monopoly of Microsoft on office suites]

Published on March 27 and I'm just finding out about this? Wow!

This is definitely going to shake up things at ISO. It should really
underscore that the treaty criteria for an international standard is
leveling the competitive playing field. So will ISO stick with
fast-tracking a draft standard that is under investigation for
possible antitrust issues involving non-disclosure of technology
necessary to implement it? I don't think this could get much more
embarrassing for ISO?

Thank you ever so much for the link,

Best regards,

Marbux
