Links for 1-25-08

A few interesting and entertaining links to end the week:

  • IBM's Stance Against OpenXML Is Increasingly Confusing – Oliver Bell has a great post where he drills into the history the FUD approach. He also points out how easy it is for a large organization to have trouble with consistent messaging.
  • What every engineer knows – Is this Rob's subtle way of telling us that the ODF committee is disappointed that they didn't receive as thorough of a review when they went through ISO as the detailed review Open XML is now benefitting from and that for the sake of good engineering they would like to resubmit the 1.1 version of the spec to SC34 for a full review? In reading Rob's post, I didn't quite understand what he would think about a bridge that claimed to use AASHTO/AWS D1.5M/D1.5:2002, but in reality it used a different method that was instead "inspired" by that building code [1] [2] [3] [4] Or maybe they didn't document the design at all… [5] [6]
  • "Notes" from the Open XML Battlefront: IBM vs. IBM, part 2 – Similar to Oliver's post, but with a different angle (and you gotta love the quote at the end)
  • Hashing of Passwords in the Open XML File Format – Eric drills into the password hashing issue a bit more, and points out something that I thought most folks were already aware of in terms of comparisons to another ISO standard.

    S, Are you for real? :-) Is there some reason I'm required to post links to non-MSFT people only? Whatever dude... -Brian

    Also S... If you're going to come onto my blog and not only insult but also swear, then at least have the guts to use your actual name. Thanks! :-) -Brian

    >>His literary style reminds me of somebody who posted frequently on this blog in the past--and whose name also begins with S<< I assume you mean Stephane Rodriguez, the guy that runs an anti-MS weblog somewhere. It could be the same guy, he swears alot when he has no point to make.
