We’re the champions one more time…

Quote:

“On 2 September 2007, ISO national bodies voted on Ecma 376, “OOXML”. The ISO secretariat has decided to move forward with a Ballot Resolution Meeting in February 2008 to make the final decision. Microsoft got to pass with 19 “difficulties” round one (fasttrack OOXML) and lost round two (vote on OOXML), and now the fight moves to round three, the definitive one.

OOXML is an immature documentation of one vendor’s proprietary document format which depends on software patents held by this vendor, which block interoperability. It conflicts with existing ISO standards. More than three hundred technical comments have been raised by industry, academics, researchers, and experts. The ISO JTC-1 Directive p.48 section 9.8 requires national bodies to vote “NO with comments” if there remain unanswered technical problems. The accuracy and honesty of the voting process has been questioned in many countries.

From February 25 to 29, 2008, national boards will meet in Geneva to discuss and vote finally on OOXML. If your country is not present, it won’t have a say in the final resilt.”

3.2 billion people vote NO against OOXML.

The war is not over yet, but if they want peace, they’ll have war.





A Better Slogan

2 09 2007

About previous post of Cristian about look for a better slogan for the Blog, I was thinking and reading all the posts I realised that the Blog is usually used by leaving videos, photos, stories, experiencies, etc., about our life and hobbies.

So I think that “Where the English becomes into life” would be a good slogan for our Blog. What do you think? Do you like it? I hope so. :)

Bye!!!!!! Blue.
