ISO votes to reject Microsoft's OOXML Print E-mail
Posted by Kim Haverblad - Tuesday, 04 September 2007

We haven't heard the last about this since Microsoft is quoted to said that it expects a second vote early next year will result in approval. Question is now if the last couple of activities from Microsoft will repeat itself or if they have learned anything.
