Bruce Perens and the OSI boardBruce Perens and the OSI boardPosted Mar 24, 2008 19:57 UTC (Mon) by BrucePerens (subscriber, #2510)In reply to: Bruce Perens and the OSI board by einstein Parent article: Bruce Perens and the OSI board Much as we'd all love to believe that, I trust you'll pardon me for being a bit skeptical, based on microsoft's track record. This really is a problem in the standards organizations. Like OSI, many of them elect people without regard to the fact that they really may be out to represent a company agenda. But I've seen a Microsoft representative at IETF - an avowed "individual acting only for herself", with four of the assistants that came with her visible in the audience feeding questions to the discussion, and what was coming out was clearly the Microsoft line. It's easy for people to game the process. And it's easy for others to close their eyes to it. Bruce
