ISO pushes back results announcement!

More drama at ISO regarding OOXML and it seems an investigation is underway, supposedly there is some wrongdoing in the voting process. It seems very fitting for a process involving a very complex, propriety, patent-laden and not-well-documented format from Microsoft.

Last September Microsoft failed to gain enough votes to push OOXML, Microsoft is persistent and as Steve Ballmer said "we keep on working and working and coming and coming", even if it involves bribing the delegate and I'm sure it did!
The results should be announced tomorrow, I hope it is for the best, but it seems from who followed the voting process it will end in Microsoft's favor.

And this is how I feel about the whole thing (if it gets OKed):
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
