There is a happy medium that can satisfy both - (1) working together on fundamentals for the benefit of the space (all win) and (2) competing on productization. Personal preference on where one sits between (1) and (2), but rarely is the optimal position at the extremes.

That's what I tried to convince folks of in 2015. That's why we named the work Fabric..to be a fabric under all the platforms, not a platform itself. But...

IMHO we are so early in this space and the opportunity is so big that competition and a variety of approaches can only be a good thing. Premature standardisation may not be ideal. The market will force standards when people are using the underlying ideas and need to interoperate

I believe it’s building a common foundation that can be augmented and built upon. We *are* early but if core fundamentals are in place we can experiment in ways that more of the aggregate of that experimentation benefits the market.

Makes sense. The alternate possibility is that both products become so widely used that the need for interop forces the market to demand a standard

Whereas if a standard is created first but its at odds with what's really needed, the market will ignore the standard

Leveraging @AccordHQ codebases and doing so with collaboration across the industry would be a great step forward! It would be great to get collaboration on this across organizations. It’s already made significant steps with code gov from @linuxfoundation.
