Standard organizations, e.g.: Grass-roots groups, e.g.:
Industry-level standards
Mostly regulators-driven
Participation is often regulated
Standards are sold or licenced
Formal development process, often less
flexible, could be lengthy
Charges apply to advanced training or
programmatic access
Mostly research-level standards
Open to any interested party
Volunteering efforts
Standards are free for use
Development process varies, more flexible
and adaptable to changes
Minimal or little funds for carry out the work,
let alone provide training
