Parent article: GNOME and OOXML

Actually, I was thinking of the other side. People who are opposed to ISO standardization are accused of not caring about interoperating with MS Office or of not wanting documentation for MS formats. And some GNOME personalities (*cough* Miguel) seem to think that helping ISO bless OOXML is the only way to get documentation out of MS (and is worth the cost of having two incompatible ISO standards).
