But isn't this somewhat true even for the final version? Meaning that it will never be the definite answer as we will always look at other implementations or decide on our own that a document maybe formally incorrect or outright broken, but we still want to support it because our users want us to? > At this point the only answer I have is, I guess we could convince the KDE > e.V. or the GNOME Foundation to sponsor the Euros to someone that really > wants to read the document (and has a track record of contributing to > poppler). Interested organizations (I am thinking for example of public administrations) might also directly commission people to implement various functions from the standard and provide access to these documents but keep the ownership of the license so that it is not bound to a single person.
