Last Monday, I gave a short presentation on collaboration among standards development organizations at the Global Standards Symposium in Dubai, UAE. The Internest Society has posted my slides and a transcript of my words. These are available here: http://www.internetsociety.org/doc/remarks-global-standards-symposium-2012 I referenced the OpenStand principles in my comments. These can be found at http:www.open-stand.org. Leslie Daigle, the Chief Internet Technology Officer at the Internet Society, took this opportunity to write a brief post about OpenStand; it is available here: http://www.internetsociety.org/blog/2012/11/open-internet-standards-collaboration Thanks, Russ
