Alejandro, I'm not quite sure why pointing out that the organizations many
here point to as the foundation for Internet governance are promoting a very
significant statement (concerning standards) which more or less completely
ignores key elements of the foundation document for global Internet
governance i.e. the WSIS declaration
http://www.itu.int/wsis/docs/geneva/official/dop.html is "spite"...
surprised, disappointed, irritated certainly, but not spiteful...

Michael,

that sounds close to functionally indistinguishable from the motivation
called "spite." As good as any but worth the footnote.
