Jedno NE Majkrosoft Office formatu kao ISO standardu!!! PART 2

Ovo je upravo stiglo na moju email adresu:

 

Dear Dusan Filiferovic,
You signed the <NO>OOXML petition, a movement backed now by more than

70.000 supporters worldwide. Our effort to influence the OOXML (Office

Open XML) standardization process has been an astonishing success so

far. We aim for at least 100.000 signatures in February when the Geneva

Ballot Resolution Meeting (BRM) will convene with the aim to resolve

comments.


Microsoft is trying by all means to get its "standard" adopted without

substantial changes despite of its thousands of officially reported

technical flaws and the pre-existence of ISO 26300:2006 (OpenDocument,

ODF) as the most appropriate international standard for the

representation of office documents.


By next Tuesday Dec 11 2007 delegates from your National Standards Body

ISS who will participate in the BRM have to be announced to

ISO. At least Portugal and Ireland will be represented by Microsoft. In

many other countries, we know that Microsoft gold partners are

 proposing

themselves as heads of national delegations. Many of them will prevail

if we do not take action.


Will you let Microsoft represent your country at Geneva and decide the

future of OOXML?


You can make a difference and call now ISS at +381-11-2547096 and help

us to find out:


  a. Who will represent ISS on DIS 29500 at the Ballot

     Resolution Meeting in Geneva?

  b. When will the decision on delegates be made and if ISS is

     aware of the Dec 11 deadline?

  c. Does your national delegates for the BRM are independent enough

     from Microsoft?

  d. Does the responsible Committee of ISS for DIS 29500 work

     on resolution proposals for all the 3500 comments tabled or - if

 at

     all - only for the national comments that they submitted?


Please report your findings by replying to this email, we will update

this page with the members of each national delegation:

Mislim da ima ipak neke vajde od ove peticije, nadam se njenom uspehu. Očekujte i PART 3 o ovome.
