The fact that there are existing standards, have been for years and that
launching a search query out of the SAI for X3D is a trivial exercise blows
right past these people.  "We need an HTML for 3D!"  Wow.  See Mark Pesce,
Tony Parisi, Brian Behlendorf and Tim Berners-Lee about that statement.

This is IBM being the bad guys again.  It's interesting to see them return
to their original culture after years of letting Microsoft take all the
blame for that kind of behavior.  There is no IP to be had if they
acknowledge a history that the entire internet witnessed.

1984 was just a little late.  It isn't bad companies that make this kind of
thing happen.  It's bad people.
