Description: The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a standard for describing content data in a manner that facilitates the sharing of such content across different systems and applications. This paper, commissioned by Microsoft, seeks to address and clarify any misunderstandings in the industry, and among the wider general public, about both the standardisation process that Microsoft has embarked upon in respect of its Office Open XML Reference Schema, as well as the legal arrangements governing the use of the Schema by others.
