I bet the public petition for the British Standard Office to oppose OOXML has many times more signatures. We'll never know though because MS doesn't publish the numbers. And if they did I bet half of them (at least!) aren't real people but MS employees under false names.

No Sander. They are not MS employees under false names. They are dead people. Remember?

As part of Microsoft's affirmative action hiring practices, they are now officially "breathing impaired" individuals, and thus qualified to post on Microsoft's behalf.

Thanks jdixon. As chief newshound, I should have known about MS' new hiring policies.
