I have been particular impressed by the actions of two groups
who seem to have the courage to take a stand.  One is the
group of ISVs and User Councils attached to X/Open, who have
taken a position on the GUI question.  Another is the
European Commission, who seems to be making the tough decisions
and moving forward with their selections for standards used for
national procurements.  They haven't made a whole *lot* of
progress, mind you, but seem more than willing to do so.
