> How about the IETF?

A few years back there was a strong feeling at IETF that
they didn't want to do APIs.  They're for protocols and
data formats (e.g. HTTP and MIME) where stability is
a generally accepted goal ... unlike the original situation
with HTML, which MSFT and NSCP tended to view
as a commercial platform more than a neutral standard.

I do like the openness of the IETF processes, as a rule.
But they're not for _all_ specifications.
