Here's a strong-worded, yet eloquent article that Eric S. Raymond posted at OpenSource.org regarding Microsoft's "machinations" to pass the certification process for its OOXML specification at ISO - the standards governing body. It details some of ESR's own description on how far Microsoft has gone to just to "brute force" its way into letting the ISO to approve OOXML as a "standard".
Graphic, yet classic. I just love how ESR writes... http://opensource.org/node/192 -- "A dog that has no bite, barks loudest."
