RE:  Results of Open XML balloting at INCITS
The problem is knowing where a controversy is genuine or manufactured.  If
the only rule is non-controversy, very few standards would pass.   Anyone
remember just how controversial XSD was (still is in some circles) or XML
Namespaces?

Thanks for providing context, Michael.  You're right: the
commentary surrounding the INCITS balloting situation obscures
the fact that INCITS' decision is (probably) relevant only to the
US vote, one of many.
