People don't care. Beside, most people will never even hear about the real story.

Question: How many people here ever heard about how ISO made a new standard before OOXML was
proposed ? 

Did anybody here care before OOXML came along ? I didn't.

That is the current situation for 99.9% of the world.

The only reputation ISO needs is in the name.
