Hi Tim,

Tim said:
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


Didier replies:
Well said!

Cheers
