There are number of different definitions for "open standards". Requirements for open standard often include restrictions for the process and completeness.

such as:

* Further develop­ment must be open for anyone to par­tic­i­pate in

* Further develop­ment must be open for anyone to view

* Techno­logically mature standards must be imple­mented by multiple vendors or an open reference implemen­tation

You're absolutely right. Those are key elements for the developments of open standards!

Is it perhaps possible that "further development" in this context refers to development of the standard, and does not come with any notion of open governance of implementation?
