Marketing and Cathedral program companies call this an "Open" standard.
They have a "Closed" standard. The closed standard drops the last half
of Ed's definition. This way they can call it a standard and share it
with a few select individuals that meet their requirements. They also
blur the "known and accepted" portion to allow more loose fits.
