And there is no moral difference between a group of developers
on a list forming their own keiretsu to create a product and a
proprietary product sans rules for licensing. Again, the
computer science is always coupled to the social behavior and
they swap places in different levels. Those arguments go
nowhere. Spy Vs Spy.
The only difference between a chaotic and a stable system
is the relative strengths of the negative and positive
feedback parameters. The social system has the advantage
or disadvantage of opportunistic selectors based on
awareness of the parameters. Them that has, gets.

Well, that gets back to the motive behind my original question: where does a
hub architecture come from, if not from a group of people representing
various interests gathering together to determine their common interest--a
committee? To reiterate something from my last post, I realize that no
committee can come up with something that works for absolutely everyone.
But, when you have something evolving on its own, completely organically, it
evolves into tag soup, and commercial enterprises don't want to use tag
soup. They're nervous enough about the differences between RSS .9, 1.0, 2.0,
and Atom.
