Dr. Nagarjuna on Groklaw - Proprietizing Standards
by jtd 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

A red letter day i suppose. Groklaw quotes Dr.Nags questions and responses to the usual red herring replies from M$' V. Kapur. This article is the result of acts of omission and commission by M$ in Portugal in getting ECMA approval for MS ooxml as a "standard". Hope similiar things dont happen here. http://www.groklaw.net/article.php?story=20070720073215943 -- Rgds JTD
