[odf-discuss] Petition: No to OOXML

[Daniel Carrera]

Hello all,

Someone just came to IRC with a petition for ISO to not approve 
Microsoft's OOXML format:

You can also dig it:

ISO is not supposed to bow to political pressure, but at first blush I 
don't see a harm in the petition. At a minimum, it gets more people 
thinking about ODF and OOXML and the issues involved.

Best,
Daniel.
