"*THE ISO APPROVED* Open Document Format (ODF) standard has gained 
ground during Microsoft's campaign for its competing Office Open XML 
(OOXML) specification, a senior Vole executive admitted in a panel 
session about the long running ISO standards struggle over OOXML at the 
Red Hat Summit in Boston on Thursday."
Lulling us into a false sense of security?

..."will also take a role on the technical committee in charge of 
evolving ODF"...
Embrace & extend?
