They did admit one thing...

As I pointed out in an earlier blog, Microsoft's McKee did say that "ODF had won". However, he didn't actually go so far to say OOXML had lost, and didn't rule out the idea that the two standards (well one standard and one would-be standard) may merge in the future. What form this merging would take is unclear but OOXML supporters would obviously see this as a long-term failure if it was to come about.
