Stop ISO corruption

In April 2008, OOXML became an ISO standard despite many irregularities in the voting process, including:

In Norway, the technical experts voted No with a huge majority, however this vote got changed into a Yes by progressively excluding all dissenting participants
In Germany, experts only had to choices: Yes and Abstain. There was no way to vote No
In Africa, many countries joined ISO for the express purpose of voting in favor of OOXML, obviously after having been handsomely paid by Microsoft

Despite these glaring irregularities, the following people thought it necessary to sign a petition supporting this corrupt process:

So, if you have to deal with any of these, you've been warned. Corrupt people not only harm the public good, but also the company that employs them:

They may chose suppliers or contractants who would not satisfy the quality standard of the company
They might give some unimportant customers discounts bigger than would make business sense

So, if any of the above applies for a job in your company, be careful.
