No problem, I didn' think you were sniping.

The real problem here is that we are attempting to develop standards in an
open and hopefully fair way. On the other hand companies and individuals
will be made or broken based on which technologies win. Those companies
will not necessarily behave in an open nor fair way. This makes our job
harder.... very hard.
