Dear All,<br>
<br>
I am in support of these efforts to increase the openness of
standards. I also do not wish to make the best, the enemy of the
good. So please take the following in that light.<br>
<br>
In full consideration open standards are a legal, political,
operational (of the Standards Development Organization, SDO) and
technical issue. ISOC is addressing the legal and political issues,
some of the operational issues and few of the technical issues.
Consider: "Interoperability" is often technically difficult to
achieve and must be balanced with increased costs (development or
per unit) by the SDO. Guidelines would be of considerable help as
implementers prefer to obsolete earlier versions and users (often
not well represented in technical SDOs) usually do not want their
earlier investments negated. Backward compatibility, a part of
interoperability, is often only partial. Interoperability becomes
more difficult to achieve as systems become more complex and the
need for testing (beyond conformance testing ) to verify
interoperability may become a necessary part of standardization.
Backward compatibility testing may be very complex (bordering on
impossible) if the standard is not technically designed to support
this concept.<br>
<br>
For those interested in a broader view of what an open standard
could be, please see: "Open Standards a Call for Action" <a

coming together to make a natural opportunity to support
open standards at the ITU in the spirit of the Open
Standards proclamation below. Hamadoun at WCIT and
previously made clear he was in favor of "multi-stakeholder"
and openness at ITU and I believe he was sincere. I'm going
to approach him next week at Columbia and I'm optimistic
he'll be supportive; he's taken a clear position on the
