Hello all, Sorry for the OT. Although I have been 'freed' from M$ oppression for several years now, my formal stance on it is quite 'neutral'. Like the saying in IT, "It's all just a tool for IT man, doesn't really matter whether it is FLOSS or M$'.
But, now I've just found out how DIRTY M$ is in doing their business. For the last couple of days, they have been lobbying our National Standardization Board to make M$ OXML as the national standard. So far the voting reach a deadlock, meaning that M$ OXML is still rejected as the national standard. However, seeing how DIRTY M$ is, the next voting is still makes us worried. Has this kind of DIRTY POLITICS happens in other countries regarding ODF (Open Document Format) vs M$ OXML? How do we deal with it? http://www.noooxml.org/ As a positive point of view, I think it is an early sign that they have lost confidence in competing technically, and thus they're using this kind of "DIRTY" lobbying.
