It will be interesting to see how "the group" responds when WPF/E, which will take a subset of XAML cross-platform, is released.
The group said Microsoft’s XAML markup language — which it said was positioned to replace the current Web page language HTML — was designed “from the ground up to be dependent on Windows.”
“The very same practices the European Commission found to be illegal almost three years ago have now been implemented in Vista,” the group of rivals said.

This has the potential to backfire on Microsoft, who dominate this area, but where many would move elswhere if there were more choice or pushed.
I am presuming webmasters would have to comply with this new code and I for one would only do this when there were a demand from visitors. There would need to be something amazing from Vista, for there need to be a change in my websites. I cant imaging that.
