If I may, as a side-note... 

Let's not confuse "embrace" (and even "push for") with "support".

Let's not confuse one non-neutral "document" (that someone wrote as 
part of the desires of one organization) with some kind of "universal 
specification that should rather be followed by everyone for the 
improvement of humanity and technology".

I'm not necessarily "absolutely opposed" - I'm not enthusiastic about 
it (either) - but let's be clear about what the document is, and what 
it is not.

Regards,
Ady.
