[odf-discuss] Gnome, Ecma, and what governments (and FOSS?) should have done

[Pamela Jones]

- The BRM will last for five days, period. No re-convening. If NB’s 
think that is inadequate, their recourse is to vote against the DIS. The 
process will be terminated (one way or the other) 30 days after Feb 29th.

- The 30 days after the BRM in which votes may be changed are indeed 
“funky”. I expect there may be lobbying of all kinds in that time!

- Alex.
