●● Australia Potentially Corrupted by Microsoft (for OOXML “Yes” Vote)

Posted in Australia, Microsoft, Open XML at 3:38 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz

Yesterday it was Britain (the BSI) and today it appears to be Australia also.

=> it was Britain | ↺ appears to be Australia also

I am not head of delegation so I have no vote, of course. But I expect some people will not be happy that I am going at all.

From Groklaw (Jelliffe confirms he will represent Australia at MSOOXML’s BRM)

=> ↺ Jelliffe confirms he will represent Australia at MSOOXML’s BRM

[PJ: Yes, folks. Rick Jelliffe, who just told us that Microsoft hired him ("As I have mentioned, one of my jobs this month is for Microsoft, to play Devil’s Advocate with the Ecma responses..."), is representing Australia at the BRM. "Political issues don't come into it." Don't you just love it?]

How much more corruption will we be seeing and how many times need it be repeated that the BRM in Geneva will be a sad joke [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]? █

=> more corruption | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5
