Conclusions

W3C is a global community started technical only, now societal, MSH

France and EU play a big role since the beginning, WAI, SemWeb

EC support is vital, but going through R&D calls is not fair for a major SDO

Risky competition for the OWP: native mobile OS, proprietary IoT APIs, social walled gardens)
