Its OOXML victory – if it turns out to be one after the appeals are heard –
will certainly be won at the cost of huge damage to its credibility.
Evidently, even while Microsoft was promising interoperability and openness
it was actively subverting the primary interoperability vehicle of the
international computing community: the standards-setting process.

So much for interoperability.
