OOXML leap-year bug unfix (Norbert Bollow's Comments on Standards)

  • The precise proposed addition to the text of ISO/IEC 29500-4 is:


    §10.7, "Additional representation for dates and times (Part 1, Section
    18.17.4 )"


    For a document of a transitional conformance class, each unique instant in SpreadsheetML time shall be stored
    as an ISO 8601-formatted string or as a serial value.



    This would override, for files of the "transitional" conformance type,
    the statements in Section 18.17.4 which allow only the ISO 8601 date
    format.

The EU fight against yuck ePatents (Lessig Blog)

  • If people had understood how patents would be granted when most of today�s ideas were invented and had taken out patents, the industry would be at a complete stand-still today. The solution . . . is patent exchanges . . . and patenting as much as we can. . . . A future start-up with no patents of its own will be forced to pay whatever price the giants choose to impose. That price might be high: Established companies have an interest in excluding future competitors." Fred Warshofsky, The Patent Wars 170-71 (NY: Wiley 1994).
