Google launches AMP for email

An industry standard can be started by one company and doesn't even need to be open source. All that's required as that some people or companies agree to do it the same way.

That's not a standard, it's a common practice. It only becomes a standard when it gets documented and everyone interested in implementing it agrees to follow the document.

Unfortunately, the documentation doesn't need to be open source, and often isn't. (For example, in the building industry.)

Same with HIPPA. If a standard is required by law, access shouldn't be gated and the document should have the same copyright status as law.

AMP is not an industry standard either. At best it is a spec, and a seriously broken one at that.
