What, if anything, do you think would be unique to standards in the RT world vs. say in the modeling world?

Current state is that projects are encouraged but not required to do these things. Participation in the simultaneous release requires them to use the same impls of third party libs (standard or not). What should be different in the RT policy?

Is this a policy topic or a "we should have a shared website that lists standards implementations" topic? Can you clarify your intent here?

Yes, this a longstanding topic though not really "policy" per se. The Foundation folks have been talking legal with the OSGi folks and AFAIK have yet to come to a resolution.

We could bring this up but you seem to have something in mind and we would just be speculating as to what that is. I understand that the regular RT PMC call time is early for west coast. Perhaps you could draft an initial policy proposal that captures your ideas and put it on this list or in a bug. Then we can try an email discussion or schedule an explicit call at a time that works better for you. Make sense?
