Re: EBA taking over EUDIW-4-Payments standardization

As a non-European, I don't understand why this is "unexpected"? If not
the EBA, who else would it be? Why is this happening now? Some
arm-chair analysis would be helpful as what has occurred with
EUDIW/ARF in the EU is thoroughly confusing to many of us not involved
in EU politics.
