Making Contact

Important: We DO NOT want to spam these organisations or approach them in an annoying manner! Any communciation should be polite, detailed and technically accurate.

We would appreciate volunteers to contact each organisation ASAP to discover answers to the basic questions:

  • When will you be discussing the proposal to Fast Track the Ecma 376 standard via JTC1?
  • What is your current position in respect of the Fast Track Proposal?
  • Who is/are the responsible individual(s) within your organisation who we should approach with detailed critiques?

Notes

  • See the Sample Letter below.
  • Refer to the standard by it's full name. Do not call it "OOXML" or "EOXML" or "OXML". The proper name of the standard is the "Ecma 376 Office Open XML" standard. Use the full name the first time you refer to the standard in your email, and after that, refer to it as "Ecma 376".

Who should volunteer?

If you wish to put your name down to contact a particular NSB, please consider the following points:

The individual making contact should:
1. Do so in the appropriate language.
2. Be a citizen of the country concerned.
3. If possible do so in the name of a company rather than as a private individual.
4. Hopefully that company would be either not tiny, or in some manner a technical/IT company.
5. If the company has had previous dealings with the NSB that would be a bonus.

The first 2 points are most important, the others are useful. However, if there is no qualified volunteer for a particular country then anybody who speaks the language will do.

Carbon Copies

Regardless of your nationality, it would be useful to copy (cc) your letter or email to:

Mr. Alan Bryden
ISO Secretary General
bryden@iso.org

Sample Letter

The following is a sample letter, sent by Daniel Carrera to the "info@" email of the Standards Council of Canada. You are welcome to copy any ideas from it that you find useful. 

Dear Sir or Madam,

Earlier this month the Ecma International standards
group submitted a standard for fast-track ISO
approval. That is the "Ecma 376 Office Open XML"
standard.

As an individual who works in IT, I am very concerned
about the possibility of this standard receiving ISO
approval. In brief, this specification is so complex
(6,000 pages) and vendor-specific that it can only be
successfully implemented by Microsoft Office (the
application on which it is modelled after). It would
effectively block all Canadian IT developers (such as
myself) from competing on a level playing field.

The concerns over Ecma 376, as pertaining ISO
approval, are summarized on this page:
http://www.grokdoc.net/index.php/EOOXML_objections

The initial review period ends in two weeks, on
February 5th. If none of the "P-Members" of the
ISO/IEC JTC1 (Joint Technical Commitee 1) raise an
"contradiction", the specification will go through
the "fast-track" process towards ISO approval. The
above page lists many contradictions in Ecma 376 as
defined by the ISO rules.

Canada is a P-Member of the ISO/IEC JTC. I would like
to make contact with the individual(s) responsible
for  Canada's vote on the JTC to discuss the 
contradictions in Ecma 376.

I was hoping you could answer a couple of questions:

* When will the Canadian delegation be discussing the
proposal to Fast Track the Ecma 376 standard through
ISO?
* What is the current position of the delegation on
this proposal?
* Who are the responsible individuals whom I should
approach with a detailed critique?

Thank you very much for your assistance.

Yours truly,
Daniel Carrera
Canadian IT Developer.

Sample Letter 2

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am sending you this email since your organisation is a liaison member of ISO JTC1 (International Standards Organisation Joint Technical Committee 1).

Earlier this month the ECMA International standards group submitted a standard for "fast-track" ISO approval. That is the "Ecma 376 Office Open XML" standard. (ISO/IEC DIS 29500)

Ecma-376 is a (proposed) standard for "word-processing documents,presentations, and spreadsheets" which overlaps completely with an existing, approved, standard ISO/IEC 26300:2006 (openDocument (ODF)). Therefore it conflicts directly with ISO's goal of having one standrd for any area.

Furthermore, this specification is so complex (>6,000 pages) and vendor-specific that it can only be successfully implemented by Microsoft Office (the application on which it is modelled).

The numerous concerns over Ecma 376, as pertaining ISO approval, are summarized here: http://www.grokdoc.net/index.php/EOOXML_objections.

The page lists many contradictions in Ecma 376 as defined by the ISO rules.

The initial review period ends in two weeks, on February 5th. If none of the "P-Members" of the ISO/IEC JTC1 (Joint Technical Commitee 1) raise a "contradiction", the specification will go through the "fast-track" process towards ISO approval.

I believe, and I hope that you will agree, that this standard should not be allowed "fast-track" approval. Rather it should be remanded to Ecma International for: (i) harmonization with ISO/IEC 26300:2006 and numerous other standards.

If you are concerned about this matter please raise your concerns with the Secretary of JTC1 Mrs. Lisa Rajchell (rajchel@ansi.org).

Yours truly,

Letter as Sent to Ansi & BSI

Dear ,

Earlier this month ECMA International submitted a standard for "fast-track" ISO approval. That is the "Ecma 376 Office Open XML" standard. (ISO/IEC DIS 29500)

Ecma-376 is a standard for "word-processing documents, presentations, and spreadsheets" which overlaps completely with an existing, approved standard ISO/IEC 26300:2006 (OpenDocument (ODF)). Therefore it conflicts directly with ISO's goal of having one standard for any area.

Furthermore, this specification is so complex (>6,000 pages) and vendor-specific that it can only be successfully implemented by Microsoft Office (the application on which it is modelled).

Ecma 376 also violates section 2.14 of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1, in that not all of what it takes to implement the standard is covered by the licensing conditions offered by Microsoft.

The numerous concerns over Ecma 376, as pertaining to ISO approval, are summarized on this page: http://www.grokdoc.net/index.php/EOOXML_objections. The page lists many contradictions in Ecma 376 as defined by the ISO rules.

The initial review period ends in two weeks, on February 5th. If none of the "P-Members" of the ISO/IEC JTC1 (Joint Technical Commitee 1) raise a "contradiction", the specification will go through the "fast-track" process towards ISO approval.

I believe, and I hope that you will agree, that this standard should not be allowed "fast-track" approval. Rather it should be remanded to Ecma International for: (i) harmonization with ISO/IEC 26300:2006 and numerous other standards and (ii) development of more suitable intellectual property documents.

Yours truly,

ISO/IEC JTC 1 P-Members

This is a list of all the P-members of JTC1.

Any of the P members of the full JTC1 may raise a Contradiction with the proposed standard during the 30 day review period. However, if no Contradiction is raised then the proposal is passed to sub-committee (SC) 34, and any efforts to influence the outcome should be aimed at them.

The Secretariat of SC34 is currently held by Canada.
The following National Bodies (NB) sit on the committee (SC34): China, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Kazakhstan, Republic of Korea, Norway, Switzerland, Thailand, USA, United Kingdom.

Note: Contact information for individual members of each delegation is coming from this page

Note: The full list of all P members of the full JTC1 (the parent of JTC1 SC 34) can be found here or here or here. (I prefer the first link to iso.org)

Our initial contact with ANSI was forwarded to Jennifer Garner by Henrietta Scully with the explanation: ANSI has received the email below submitting comments on a matter presently out for consideration by the US TAG for JTC 1. As Administrator of the US TAG, please pass along these comments for their consideration in developing the US position on the question of a Fast Track Ballot for ECMA-376 ISO/IEC DIS 29500 Office Open XML File Formats.
