Open XML standardu se zatím příliš nedaří

V okamžiku, kdy bude státní správa smět používat pouze otevřené formáty, Microsoftu de-facto standard k ničemu nebude.

EU ma v e-governemente pozaduje medzinarodne standardy-Odporucanie Europskej komisie je totiz dokument, ktory musia v casovom horiznte zahrnut do svojich zakonov vsetky clenske staty a odporucanie pouzivat Open document formats medzinarodne standardizovane(ODEF) v e-Governmente v EU uz plati s ucinostou tusim od1.1.2008(dokumenty pisu,ze ODEF su PDF, ODF a mozno aj OOXML ak prejde ako ISO 29500 ). O par dni je workshop EU e-government-u EU a kedze OOXML nepreslo(info je zatial neoficialne)

P-Members hlasovanie: za 17 z 32 = 53.12% (pozadovanych na schvalenie je najmenej 66.66% z tych co hlasovali a nezdrzali sa hlasovania- vybor ma 36 clenov P-state http://www.iso.org/iso/iso_technical_committee.html?commid=45374 tiraol som sa, lebo istych bolo 9 hlasov proti a 15 proti bolo maximum)
Hlasovanie vsetych statov: 18 proti zo 69 = 26.08% (tu plati podmienka, ze proti moze byt najviac 25% proti zo vsteych statov) a musia byt splnene obe podmienky

Karel De Vriendt opened the session with the presentation of the PEGSCO Recommendations on Open Document Formats that were approved by the IDABC Management Committee in December 2007. Since the PEGSCO is composed of representatives from all Member States, the Recommendations reflect the common denominator of European public administration in regard to document standards.
Besides reiterating former IDA and IDABC activities and lauding the achievements in standardisation, the PEGSCO document focuses on providing criteria and requirements for ODEF to users and providers.
According to the PEGSCO recommendations public administrations should:
- use international document format standards;
- use standards supported by multiple products;
- adapt national guidelines and regulations to reflect the choice for open, international standards in this area;
- define functional requirements for open document formats, ensuring compatibility between applications;
- create guidelines for (non-)revisable document formats for different purposes.

What are ODEF? Main criteria:
 Defined in an open process in which all stakeholders can
participate;
 Can be studied and implemented by anybody, without
restrictions, in commercial applications as well as in free
(open source) software;
 Considering the importance of the issue, formal
standardization, via recognised standardization bodies has
been requested.

Strategic considerations
•Only products supporting all relevant standards and only standards supported by multiple products;
•No incomplete implementations, no proprietary extensions;
•Insist on conformance testing and document validation possibilities;
•Standardize (internally) on a minimal set of formats (one format for one purpose).

Importance of Standardisation
Member State representatives welcomed the standardisation initiatives undertaken by industry as steps towards open and sustainable formats. However, there is a general dissatisfaction with the perspective of having competing standards: ISO 26300 and ECMA 376 (ISO/IEC DIS 29500). Two competing standards would only perpetuate existing compatibility problems.
Instead, interoperability should be ensured: no incomplete implementations (one should be able to open all documents conforming to the standard)

ODF vyhralo

Ona taková znaková sada bez základních typografických fetures (třeba typografických závorek) je pro GUI systémy naprosto nevhodná. Naopak pro textové terminály unixů je to celkem jedno. Ale co, měli použít 8859-2, a knížky jsme mohli ve střední Evropě sázet bez typograficky správných uvozovek, elipsis, em a en dash apod. Nebo by přišel někdo jiný (Apple, HP), a prosadil svoji code page, která by pro DTP byla vhodnější, a tak MS naučil, že potřeby trhu jsou prvořadé. Učte se také.
