  NIST endorses Microsoft's Open XML in upcoming vote
Time: 15:43 EST/20:43 GMT | News Source: News.com | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is backing Microsoft's effort to certify Office Open XML as an international standard.

The U.S. standards body said on Friday that it has voted to conditionally approve Office Open XML (OOXML) pending some technical concerns in an upcoming standards approval vote.

NIST is part of the committee that will establish the United States' position in a September 3 vote at the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Microsoft is seeking ISO standardization as a way to appeal to government customers concerned over long-term archiving of digital documents.
