Dear Peter,

This indeed pretty much sums up the situation. As far as I am concerned 
that while there is some blame to be passed around, the biggest obstacle 
has been the (perceived) lack of common ground between the various 
stakeholders.

I still have some hope for a meaningful standard, but it has been 
greatly diminished in the last year. Let's see what we can salvage.

Regards,

Walter
