So, in a few years, web standards will be all properties of big
companies,  we'll have to pay to do free software to be "compatible"
with the web ???

what about freedom to do free (liberty) software ?  what about linux ?
opensource software ?

what about the RIGHT to do programmations without pay ??


what about the goal of the web ?

we need a FREE (free like beer AND freedom) base for the Net.

in a few years, all research , all the internet will be only a companies
things, no more homepage, no more artistic website, no more community.

all will be patents, money and capitalistic politic,  you will see.
