I think many of the issues we come up against are actually
due to thinking about business before technological issues.
I won't mention any names, but if you know of any large publically
traded companies that derive significant revenue due to PDF they
then this may or may not relate to those entities.
Walled gardens have most recently been tried by cell phone
companies and if you search SEC filings for such terms,
there as of late has been a recognition that they are bad
for business- users and developers get mad.
So, to the extent business comes before making useful
products, something to consider.
We all want to make money but creating artificial barriers
and designing products that lock people into fixed
vendors or ways of thinking is rarely helpful.
