Okay, I'm curious.
With no stake in the answer, mind you, why can it not be registered?
From what I could make out, it couldn't be registered because it
didn't have
a real specification and those controlling the format had no interest in
producing a real specification. If you do a bit of googling you should
be able to find more on the subject. One good starting point is here:
