Dear W3C
Thank you for defining standards for the whole Internet.
Continue with it for every one on the Internet.
Don't put any restrictions on the standards.
"may be limited to implementations of the Recommendation,
and to what is required by the Recommendation"
It is a possibility for restrictions.
It will exclude people from the Internet.
Reject software patents, they will limit your own work.
Kind Regards,
Geert Stappers
