That may be true, but what IETF is renowned for is creating relatively
tight, interoperable specifications for well defined/constrained problems.
Others tend to want to boil oceans (e.g. OVF's normative reference to CIM),
which may well be necessary to solve their problems (e.g. "private" cloud)
but not ours (e.g. services like EC2).
