Thanks for this Martin. Is there anywhere we can go to read more on how
this would “prevent or side-track political decisions in this area in the
near future, before those decisions are made”?

The W3C process is one of consensus building across a very large
(international) array of actors, resulting in a recommendation (voluntary
standard). I am struggling to understand the exact impact on policy and
politics.

Is this a matter of having widespread commercial adoption independently of
upcoming policy decisions?

Thank you,
Olivier
