Re: Distinguishing between types of address (locn)

Re "...pay a fee to get access to relevant information"  ?

I note that different standards development organisations (SDO's) survive
through different business (funding) models. Some of these enable experts
to *engage *in the process of developing consensus for free (ISO). Others
require subscription membership in order to be able to join a working group
(typically these would be industry-driven bodies - expert staff don't pay,
but their employer does). Others might be more 'open' than this. But
surely, someone is paying somehow, somewhere in the value chain to achieve
these standards. Experts get the luxury to 'volunteer' time to contribute,
and someone must be enabling that, somehow. There must be an opportunity
cost (*what else of value could we be doing with our time*!) So $'s are
woven in somewhere.

However, typically standards are shared (freely) within standards
development communities (at least within/between ISO technical groups),
restricted for use for the standards development effort i.e. not
on-selling, etc.

ISO also enables 'liaisons' with other recognised international standards
development organisations.
Has W3C considered a formal (free) liaison with ISO/TC211 ?
Here's a link to the many existing liaisons with this technical committee:
http://www.isotc211.org/organizn.htm#liaisons

A consensus or best practice also becomes apparent through implementations.
Some entities are now freely sharing examples of profiles developed (or
under development) :
