In this particular alternate universe, TCP/IP withered away in the face
of the highest level of governance, which was insisting on OSI
networking. We all use ODA to exchange documents. And the world-wide
web is based on ISO 10744.
It is not useful to believe that at any absolute level, any
consortium/institute/standards body is any better than any other. Judge
'em by what they produce. They all have hits & misses. -Tim
