Azi am avut ocazia să particip la ședința comitetului tehnic 210 din ASRO. Pe ordinea de zi a fost votul asupra ratificării Open XML ca standard ISO/IEC. În discuțiile de dinainte de vot, am avut ocazia să răspund la câteva declarații ”contra”… dar fiindcă regulamentul ASRO nu permite divulgarea discuțiilor, voi alege câteva fraze din scrisoarea deschisă a lui Chris Capossela, Senior Vice President la Microsoft. Aceste fraze subliniază ce am spus și în ședință:

”…The rigorous input and debate that the Open XML file format has received from national bodies around the world is remarkable, and the final product of their work represents engineering excellence worthy of ISO/IEC approval. If Open XML is approved as an ISO/IEC standard, the story would not end there – like any other standard, maintenance affords the opportunity for continually updating and improving the standard. In this case, the global community would be in control of the evolution of this standard going forward – a fitting result given that this format will be widely used around the world for years to come.

As a result of global feedback and consideration, the Open XML standard under consideration by ISO/IEC has been significantly improved. Microsoft has been afforded a wonderful opportunity as a result of this process. We’ve listened to the global community and learned a lot, and we are committed to supporting the Open XML specification that is approved by ISO/IEC in our products…

…Now, the global community has the opportunity to take control of the future of the specification by ratifying Ecma 376 as an ISO/IEC standard. We know that it will be in good hands when this happens based on the tremendous work and improvements that have been made to the specification during the ISO/IEC process over the past 14 months. We are committed to the healthy maintenance of the standard once ratification takes place so that it will continue to be useful and relevant to the rapidly growing number of implementers and users around the world.”

Membri CT210 prezenți la ședință au votat deja, iar cei care au lipsit au 24h să-și transmită votul la secretarul comitetului. Am convingerea că votul României va rămâne YES (așa cum a fost în vara trecută).
