Dreamer: I won't confuse you with R.O.T. You think standards count. They may, but I don't think standards are particularly relevant at this juncture in the Wave discussion.
If a company has a product that can stop the wholesale thievery of secrets, customer data, property, etc.--I don't think those companies are going to check it against what standards are in place.
If it is your company that has been breached, I would think you want an effective product and you prolly could care less if it conforms to the latest standards or not.
I know we disagree on many things, but standards to me are helpful in some cases, but not in Wave's case, IMO.
If Wave begins to sell seriously, I doubt the reasons will have anything to do with standards, but rather effectiveness, efficiency and cost.
The standards argument is simply not relevant, IMO.
