Microsoft's Statement Appears to Be Sycophantic
,----[ Quote ]
| In the Indian context, Microsoft's post rejection statement carries no
| weight. When the statement itself is communicating that even at international
| level, the final decision is still pending, it was a vainglorious hope for
| the organization that the Indian body would accept its proposed format,
| especially, when the proponents of the idea of independence of standards from
| any particular environment or application are quite active here.
