ryanjo,
With respect to IEEE and wireless standards. Within the IEEE draft group, there is an INTEROPERABILITY group, which ensures that Wireless B/G/N routers work together. Amongst router vendors ALL of them SUBSCRIBE to the IEEE Specs or Draft Specs. While IEEE may be an OPEN organization, I do not believe that Johnny-off-the-Street, has the capacity to produce specs, over Cisco, Netgear, Apple, Microsoft and some of the larger vendors, and the only way for a NEW ROUTER COMPANY to break into the market is to FOLLOW the SPECS.
Now how is that different from what CCHIT does
In Every Standards SOME PLAYERS will carry more weight than others.
