Subject: NO to the Microsoft Office format as an ISO standard
To the Person in charge to ISO Standards for Italy
Dear Sirs,
I ask the national members of ISO to vote "NO" in the ballot of ISO DIS
29500 (Office
OpenXML or OOXML format) for the following reasons:
1. There is already a standard ISO26300 named Open Document Format (ODF): a
dual standard adds costs, uncertainty and confusion to industry, government
and
citizens;
2. There is no provable implementation of the OOXML specification:
Microsoft Office
2007 produces a special version of OOXML, not a file format which complies
with the
OOXML specification;
3. There is missing information from the specification document, for
example how to
do a autoSpaceLikeWord95 or useWord97LineBreakRules;
4. More than 10% of the examples mentioned in the proposed standard do not
validate as XML;
5. There is no guarantee that anybody can write a software that fully or
partially
implements the OOXML specification without being liable to patent damages
or patent
license fees by Microsoft;
6. This standard proposal conflicts with other ISO standards, such as ISO
8601
(Representation of dates and times), ISO 639 (Codes for the Representation
of Names
and Languages) or ISO/IEC 10118-3 (cryptographic hash);
7. There is a bug in the spreadsheet file format which forbids to enter
any date before
the year 1900: such bugs affects the OOXML specification as well as
software versions
such as Microsoft Excel 2000, XP, 2003 or 2007.
8. This standard proposal has not been created by bringing together the
experience
and expertise of all interested parties (such as the producers, sellers,
buyers, users
and regulators), but by Microsoft alone.
Yours faithfully,
--
