Towards Open Source-Compatible Standards
summary
National and international standards bodies sell standards as their revenue model, creating a conflict with software practices while legislation increasingly ties conformity to those standards under laws like the CRA, so harmonized standards must be forkable standards, available free in open formats, and royalty-free from patents with open participation in the process; existing artifacts like OpenStand and OSI OSR provide templates and the EU standardization revision and CRA rollout are concrete opportunities to require and test open source–compatible rules.
