according to Wikipedia :
Netscape submitted JavaScript specification to Ecma International for standardization; the work on the specification, ECMA-262, began in November 1996.
So the statment in the article
Microsoft has submitted other software to ECMA for standardisation, including programming languages ECMAScript
appears to be incorrect - Microsoft worked with and likely submitted their JScript extensions to the standrd.
