FFII on proposed OpenXML adoption
Not likely. When it comes to political tasks like ratifying standards, MS is very, very good at greasing the wheels. I'm afraid that now nobody will have the time and ability to construct a convincing objection and OOXML will most likely be passed.
Oh well. Supposedly only 3 of us were opposed to the fast track anyway! Personally, I think that's really a raw deal that they didn't accept objections filed during business hours on the 24th. At least they still recorded them.
