Microsoft does what it wants and when it wants. Sometimes documentation
drop occurs and is called "standard" (if you are lucky it'll be even
"international standard"). Since it's impossible to have any dialog with
Microsoft about standards it's useless to even wait for their offers. Better
to treat world like it is: Microsoft on the one side (necessary evil so
unavoidable - but the less you use it the better) and everyone else on the
other side (where there are small hope of consesus).

Microsoft? HTML standards? Dream on...
Had Microsoft gone along, and had Apple been the only holdout, my guess is Ogg would have stayed in.
