Not a policy but hints. > Web for All > The social value of the Web is that it enables human communication, commerce, and opportunities to share knowledge. One of W3C's primary goals is to make these benefits available to all people, whatever their hardware, software, network infrastructure, native language, culture, geographical location, or physical or mental ability. — http://www.w3.org/Consortium/mission.html Also > On 29 August 2012 five leading global organizations jointly signed an agreement to affirm and adhere to a set of Principles in support of The Modern Paradigm for Standards with a link to http://open-stand.org/principles/ which is not exactly a praise for open source. That said I do not think it is really a question of opensource products, but of standards which are freely implementable by anyone (opensource included). This means a working and interoperable system. -- Karl Dubost http://www.la-grange.net/karl/
