W3C is around to make sure everyone plays fairly, and everyone gets a say. OStatus are there because they have made an effort and have implementations. Zot can be too. Facebook recently joined the W3C, too and google have been a member for a while.
I'm in the W3C Incubator group - as a "read-only" participant. Friendika has been federating the social web more than anybody.
In fact I was muzzled on the original federated social web group because of my vocal opposition to the FSW *mandating* the acceptance of unsolicited communications - e.g. SPAM. Not much collaboration can happen when you get shut out of the process for speaking up against lunacy.
I'll federate with whatever emerges - but so far all I have to work with is an insecure spammy protocol which you can't get anywhere near private messages - as it is publicly broadcast. We do our best to support it despite these fundamental flaws.
