Re: How many standards or protocols...

this is a standards
organization and not a place where we decide who we like and which of 
their
projects we are going to allow to come through us today and not.

That's not the way any other GLOBAL standards orgs work.

Which globe are you talking about? On this one, that's *exactly* the way 
standards bodies work.  Go to the ITU and propose your pet project; see 
how far you get.  You'll need corporate backing, at the very least.

A group that approved any spec proposed to it wouldn't be a standards body 
at all; it'd be a vanity publishing house.
