Fallout from Office Open XML continues
The fallout from the events leading up to the recent vote on whether or not to approve Microsoft's Office Open XML documents format as an ISO standard continues unabated, more than a month after the software maker conceded it had lost that vote. Work in SC 34, the committee within the ISO/IEC's Joint Technical Committee 1 that addresses document formats and which has a constant stream of standards under active consideration and balloting, has come to a complete halt.

The work stoppage is being attributed to the fact that, after the increase in voting members, known as P members, of SC 34 in the run-up to the ballot on Microsoft's Office OOXML (Open Office XML) submission to the International Organization for Standardization and the International Electrotechnical Commission, those newly minted voting members have not participated in any of the SC 34 member votes since the OOXML vote.
