enforcing open standards

Written all over the Open Web App documentation (starting with the name) is the notion that compliant apps should be based on free and open standards: HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript. But just saying that doesn't make it happen. [...] Still, that is a hurdle that can only be overcome with evangelism, not with specifications.

Or by running an "app store" that enforces at least a minimal level of open-standards compliance.

I understand that Mozilla.org doesn't want to do that, but, well...it may be time to "nut up or shut up."
