We have someone who thinks that the W3C/OWF has any real power. That's hilarious.
This is what actually happens:
1. Google (Who is a member of both W3C and OWF) announces a plan/ships a feature.
2. With 80% of the browser market, people use it or get excited by it.
3. The W3C/OWF ratifies the feature as a standard.
This is literally how 90% of web standards happen today.
