Anybody remember Sutor's link to a linked copy of the Australian comments back in February? (The post he quickly deleted when people started pointing out that's against the ISO rules.)<BR/><BR/>And what about this comment:<BR/>http://blogs.msdn.com/brian_jones/archive/2007/04/20/a-few-updates-on-the-openxml-formats.aspx#2266485<BR/><BR/>That metadata makes Weir's raving about the Malaysian and Kenyan objections pretty funny.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19798349.post-90592877581379413382007-04-25T10:48:00.000+00:002007-04-25T10:48:00.000+00:00Thanks for the pointer to the update.
