When is the ISO version the wrong version, we know ISO is not supported

If OpenOffice people state that the version used by the Alex Brwon is the wrong version and he used the ISO/IEC 26300 version then obviously OpenOffice is not producing valid ISO/IEC standard files.

It is strange people now critisise the same principle as was apllied to the OOXML specification a week ago and when FOSS bloggers spread this everywhere as MS Office OOXML not being ISO/IEC compliant.

Obviously OpenOffice is also not ISO ODF compliant but at least for OOXML the standardization by ISO is still not completed and the ISO standardization of ISO ODF has been finished almost 2 years ago
