ISO isn't corrupt. If anything, it's the members. There are too many people who have a say who shouldn't. The problem I see here is that many nations don't want to force people into a document format anymore, and will take any new document format proposal thrown out. Especially one by a big name like MS, no matter how crappy and impossible to implement it may be. My proposed solution: Let Google decide. Google, albeit a large corporation itself, is generally kind and considerate toward the needs of the people (developer or not). Google's position on OOXML (PDF) is well thought out and logical, unlike ISO's likely decision.
