| Committee, HITSP, and NIST find another way to support the SDO while ensuring 
| all the resulting work product be open access for everyone?  I truly believe 
| that standards development will accelerate with total openness.  We will only 
| get to a state of interoperability when the standards themselves are in the 
| public domain subject to the scrutiny of the collective open source 
| community.
