Oh. And in what "open development processes in forums that do not charge a fortune in member fees" do the telecoms participate in? ETSI? OMA? 3GPP? 3GPP2? All of these levy non-trivial fees which look like fortunes to small companies. OTOH, I see banks at ISO meetings for which there is no charge. Cheers, ScottG

Or maybe JSR-182 is just "rubbish"? Would be nice know! Anders
