That's OUR standard

Microsoft's standard for standards and standards bodies seems standard for Microsoft. According to a VNUNET item (Microsoft pulls out of standards group over intellectual property concerns)) they've extricated themselves after a long association.

Microsoft has pulled out of an international standards body because of concerns over control of intellectual property contributed to the group.
As far as Microsoft is concerned, our standard is my standard then you can pay for it. . . Or something like that.
