<br><br>Hi pirates,<br><br>The Brazilian Technical Standards Organization will fill the ISO form with a NO and will attach the 63+2 technical comments to justify the position.<br><br>The decision was very difficult because the strong lobby of Microsoft under some organization members. I think the countries that decide say YES are making a "political"($$) decision or don?t have really a standardization process.
<br><br>Poland, China, USA and Spain decided say NO for Microsoft's OpenXml. I think, ISO tend to reject the OpenXml standart!<br><br>Jorge<br>(from Brazil)<br><a href="http://www.pp-international.net/forum/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=2061">
