It actually doesn't matter how compliant you are to the standard. Standards are certainly nice when both parties are willing to agree on things. But when one party is in position of strength and wants to minimize its costs or efforts, compliance to a standard won't help you.
- pdimitar 10y agoThat's the sad truth. Sometimes the thought of this makes me wanna go full Hitler on the internet -- if you can't expose a standards-compliant API, your service will be blocked by central tech authorities. We can dream, right? Still though, all giants eventually fall when they become phlegmatic. Sadly it's taking way too long.
