I subscribe to the IATC email list, and there are a lot of upset vendors
over that press release. The standards are a joint effort by IATC, whose
members include Focalink,Bellcore, Accipiter, ClickOver, Intelligent
Interactions, Marketwave, IPro, Starpoint, Narrative, LinkExchange,
RealMedia, Modem Media, W3.com and NetGravity. From what I can tell, most
members did not feel that agreement had been reached yet when NetGravity
announced the standard and called it their own to add insult to injury.
If you wish to find out about the IATC, you can visit
http://www.focalink.com/home/pp/index.html. I'm not sure if IATC is a
subset of the group discussing the SAMP standards or if the name was
thought up later, but joining the list there is how I got on their mailing
list.
