This might have been true if:

We'll have to wait for them to tell us whether it did. Anything we

2. the decision making process within a closed industry consortium with
maybe less than 20 members, representing immense commercial power, could be
compared to the process of consensus, that's being used within IETF.
The consortium hasn't been closed for a long time. A public mailing list
outside the IETF was announced and created, and then a second one
maintained at the IETF, both of which have been places from which
suggestions from the general community have been discussed, accepted, and
incorporated into revisions. There was furthermore a BoF to create a
working group held a couple of IETF meetings ago. It's not correct to
claim this has been closed the entire time any more than DKIM was.
