W3C Patent Policy

I hope you are kidding. The basis of web was to exchange information in 
a free manner. The imposition of royalties in order for individuals or 
corporations to implement W3C standards undermines the whole basis of 
the web and its formation. The W3C should be ashamed. Since when did a 
standards body become a money making organization. I guess it just means 
we need some other body to provide standards. It seems that the W3C has 
lost sight of its charter.
