"The GNOME Foundation has issued a statement in response to recent accusations that it has been supporting the acceptance of Microsoft's Office Open XML format as an ECMA standard at the expense of the Open Document Format, the open standard used by OpenOffice.org, KOffice and other free software office applications. However, whether the statement's attempt at logical rebuttal will do anything to reduce the emotions or altruism behind the criticisms is anybody's guess."

Rude, but to the point. All this energy trying to be the young boy looking up to the 'big and wise brother' Microsoft is wasted, I'm afraid to say.
It will only make the older brother, not the younger one, look better for the girls -- also known as 'managers'.
