The Danish Parliament has decided to create a list of allowed standards. The standards MUST be implemented before end 2011.
The decision includes two important things:
- ODF is on the list - OOXML is NOT!
- New standards MUST live up to certain criterias, among others it must be fully inter-operable with existing formats (formats already on the list). Microsoft is therefor responsible for interoperability with ODF.
