  23 <p>According to <a
  24 href="http://twerner.blogspot.com/2009/08/defects-of-office-open-xml.html">a
  25 blog post from Torsten Werner</a>, the current defect report for ISO
  26 29500 (ISO OOXML) is 809 pages.  His interesting point is that the
  27 defect report is 71 pages more than the full ODF 1.1 specification.
  28 Personally I find it more interesting that ISO still believe ISO OOXML
  29 can be fixed in ISO.  Personally, I believe it is broken beyon repair,
  30 and I completely lack any trust in ISO for being able to get anywhere
  31 close to solving the problems.  I was part of the Norwegian committee
  32 involved in the OOXML fast track process, and was not impressed with
  33 Standard Norway and ISO in how they handled it.</p>
  34
  35 <p>These days I focus on ODF instead, which seem like a specification
  36 with the future ahead of it.  We are working in NUUG to organise a ODF
  37 seminar this autumn.</p>
