Standards Australia announcement PDF
"Standards Australia has cast a vote to abstain from the ISO/IEC JTC1 ballot to adopt the DIS 29500 Office Open XML format draft standard as an International Standard. The decision to cast an abstain vote from the current ballot follows months of consultation and a clear lack of consensus in Australia on this issue by stakeholders."
"This is not the end of this process and we will continue to work with stakeholders and if the position changes we will represent it to JTC1."
