If the EU forces Danmark to require either OOXML or ODF it will also kill any procurments that require only OpenDocument.

And if choice bids are in the running it is likely that OOXML solution will be accepted anyways because of the better compatibility with existing documents.

Microsoft has taught us how to assimilate and eliminate standards. Just corrode them a bit. Open Saucers can do the same. Just imagine the fun we will have with an endless number of OOXML variations. Unfair? Of course!

As no organisation, including Microsoft, have yet implemented ISO29500 or OOXML or OXML. I would suggest that if Denmark only want this standard they may have a problem.

At the last count there were 122,000 errors with Microsofts implementation.
