@fiercemilder Valid from my perspective: An open standard can prevent some stuff. If it is share-alike licensed even more. Personally I encounter Google's happiness to not fully implement a standard when they add X-WR-TIMEZONE to icalendar to change all time zones in all events. We will encounter people wishing compatibility to major players who go a bit off standard. Are there examples where it worked to have big tech agree to not be greedy/lazy but considerate of diversity? TCP/IP.
