Story: Google: OOXML 'insufficient and unnecessary'

Believe is in the prove

If MS Office 2007 were not compliant then show us all those file which were created in MS Office 2007 default format that do not comply with the official standard XML schema's.

Rupert bounces words.
I bounce back the official standard specification from Ecma and I have actually used Altovo's XMLspy to validate those Office 2007 files against the official Ecma standard schemas.

Why do so many (virtually all) software packages think that they are so important that they have to be started automatically every time the computer boots? What is the largest number of "speed access", "update check", "camera download" and whatever other background programs you have ever seen running? Of those, how many did you really need?
