It's true that developers who want input into the spec have to pony
up, but IIRC the same is true with the ODF spec. Employees of Sun
and IBM and other OASIS members listen to community input, but it's
still their ball game.

It looks like the AAF guys are at least paying lip service to open
source software. They claim to have an "open-source API", and I know
someone's already written an input plugin for Ardour so it can't be
too GPL-incompatible.

Google failed me on this, but the Linux Sound Apps page pointed me in
the right direction.
