Open discussion on where standards are needed (and not needed!!!) - Liaise with ETPs.
Annual roadmap on standards – plan for new requirements and the retirement of old standards.
Limit the players in each standard discussion
Question the degree of formality/detail needed in each standard (just enough and publish)
Challenge the disconnect between project results and standards submissions
Allow input of reference material direct from projects
Reduce the time required to develop standards.
Reduce the IPR/license content of standards
Publish more pre-release information – allow development to start early with low risk
Promote the implementations of the standards
