Estava lendo a notícia no fim desta msg qdo um detalhe atraiu minha
atenção: "(...) the next likely stage is ISO's ballot resolution meeting
in Geneva next February, during which the Open XML specification will be
edited and fixed in order to address the 'comments' submitted by voting
nations. At that time, ISO members can change their vote again, (...)" [
"(...) o próximo estágio provavelmente será a reunião para votação da
ISO em Genebra no próximo fevereiro, durante a qual a especificação Open
XML será editada e corrigida para atender aos "comentários" submetidos
pelas nações votantes. Nessa ocasião, os membros da ISO podem mudar seu
voto de novo (...)"]
Ficou a seguinte dúvida: atendidos os comentários do "não com
comentários" do voto brasileiro, por explo, o OOXML realmente vira um
padrão aceitável?

INCITS Confirms: U.S. to Vote for Open XML in ISO
Eric Lai, ComputerWorld
The United States member group to the ISO standards body on Wednesday
[2007-08-29] finalized plans to vote in favor of approving Microsoft
Corp.'s Office Open XML document format as an open standard. The
executive board of the Washington D.C.-based InterNational Committee for
Information Technology Standards (INCITS) had its final meeting on
Wednesday morning before its September 2, 2007 vote is due at the
International Organization for Standardization (ISO). "Everyone was
entrenched in their position," said Frank Farance, a longtime INCITS
board member who voted against Open XML's ratification. The INCITS board
plans to stick with the results of a vote last Thursday, in which it
approved a "Yes, with comments" position by a 12-3 margin, with one
abstention. Others that voted against Open XML's approval in INCITS
included habitual Microsoft foes IBM and Oracle Corp. The September 2
process will tally votes by the 20 countries that are members of ISO's
Joint Technical Committee 1 (JTC-1). With countries such as Brazil and
China already announcing plans to vote against Open XML's approval, the
next likely stage is ISO's ballot resolution meeting in Geneva next
February, during which the Open XML specification will be edited and
fixed in order to address the 'comments' submitted by voting nations. At
that time, ISO members can change their vote again, with a two-thirds
majority needed to pass Open XML.
