Microsoft cops standards attack
-------------------------------
"Microsoft Australia has come under fire from rival vendors and
open-source advocates for keeping its Office document standards
proprietary.

Greg Stone, Microsoft's national technology officer for Australia and
New Zealand, faced the criticism during his presentation at the
Australian Unix User Group's Open Computing in Government conference in
Canberra. However, he stood firm on the company's policy of making the
XML schemas for its Office 2003 document standard publicly available
provided interested parties sign an agreement with the software
heavyweight."
