OOXML rejected!

"It seems the OOXML is about to be rejected! There is quite a negative vibe against the Microsoft's format, as one can see from the NY Times article. Quote:"Of the 87 countries that participated, 26 percent opposed Microsoft's bid. Under the rules for approval, no more than 25 percent of the countries could oppose the bid.""
