OOXML Saga Gets More Confusing, and Possibly More Corrupt.

It looks like Microsoft won the vote on OOXML at the ISO, but as I've noted, the voting in a number of places seemed to be highly irregular.

Of note, at this point, there are no OOXML compliant applications, including Office 2007, for which it was written, and as I've detailed before, the entire spec is a bloody mess, see here.

Of course, I thought that the ISO would reject it, chalk up another one for my blown predictions.
