  3. Everyone loves “open standards”!

  4. … but we can’t agree what they are

  5. ITU http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/othergroups/ipr-adhoc/openstandards.html

  6. . . . ANSI http://publicaa.ansi.org/sites/apdl/Documents/Standards%20Activities/Critical%20Issues/Open%20Standards/CIP-OpenStandards.doc

  14. DeNardis (“maximal openness” definition) http://www.ijclp.net/files/ijclp_web-doc_9-13-2009.pdf

  15. Closed: a specification developed by a single company with no avenue for participation by other parties. The spec is unavailable for other parties to use, even for a fee, to develop interoperable products based on the specification. The spec developer owns all the IPR and does not license it under any terms. Maximal openness DeNardis http://www.ijclp.net/files/ijclp_web-doc_9-13-2009.pdf

  16. ‘Conservative’ views: procedural due process, RAND IPR Open source-centric views: open participation, RF IPR ‘A2K-centric’ views: non-traditional innovation arguments, political and economic emphasis

  17. Standards Setting Organizations (SSOs) Consortia (sometimes “SIGs”) “A collaboration of stakeholders with the common goal of the standardization of a specific technology or application” Formal, recognized standards development orgs (SDOs) International “Big I” or “FISDOs”: ITU, ISO, IEC, JTC1 [“Little I”: e.g. ASTM, IEEE] Special Interest Groups (SIGs) “focus on a single standard for a specific technology or industry” “[usually] limited to development and possibly promotion” “generally short-lived” Alliances “develop multiple related standards for a technology” “may offer… logo and certification programs, marketing…” “life cycle may be relatively long” Regional e.g. ETSI, COPANT MIXED RAND/RF; MIXED PROCEDURAL OPENNESS National Coordination bodies: e.g. CESI, ANSI Accredited SSOs: e.g. TIA, INCITS, NEMA, SAE  Develop “Specifications”  Develop “Standards” GENERALLY RAND, PROCEDURALLY ‘OPEN’ -Based on taxonomy described in IPO Standards Primer (Sept. 2009)

  18. Exercise: where do some of these familiar SIGs/SDOs fall on DeNardis’ scale? Maximal openness Closed
