"Comments that accompanied the votes will be discussed at a ballot
resolution meeting (BRM) to be organized by the relevant subcommittee
of ISO/IEC JTC 1 (SC 34, Document description and processing
languages) in February 2008 in Geneva, Switzerland.
The objective of the meeting will be to review and seek consensus on
possible modifications to the document in light of the comments
received along with the votes. If the proposed modifications are such
that national bodies then wish to withdraw their negative votes, and
the above acceptance criteria are then met, the standard may proceed
to publication." http://www.iso.org/iso/pressrelease.htm?refid=Ref1070

"On 2 September 2007, ISO national bodies voted on Ecma 376, "OOXML".
The ISO secretariat has decided to move forward with a Ballot
Resolution Meeting in February 2008 to make the final decision.
Microsoft got to pass with 19 "difficulties" round one (fasttrack
OOXML) and lost round two (vote on OOXML), and now the fight moves to
round three, the definitive one." http://www.noooxml.org/start

Public opinion needs to be built up now. http://www.noooxml.org/petition
