The tradeoff is speed of getting new features vs 
coherence of the system as a whole.  Coordination 
of services among the APIs to the applications 
has to be maintained and therefore, the maturity 
of the managing organization to justify changes 
based on the requirements presented has to be 
considered.

Apache will do a good job matching requirements 
to features.  The W3C will do a good job managing 
the internalization of these into new spec versions. 
The developers will want new feature and the managers 
will want a stable, predictable system.  

Have any of the organizations asked to be the new 
spec owner, and if so, have they presented their 
qualifications to manage it and adapt it?
