Among VESA's standards:
CRITICISMS VESA have charged high price for published standards, which have prevented the propagation of the supposed open standards. {Link without Title} According to Kendall Bennett, developer of VBE/AF standard, VESA Software Standards Committee was closed down as a result of such practice. Although nowadays VESA have hosted free standards, the collection rarely (if ever) include newly developed standards. Even for obsolete standards, the collection is incomplete. The secretive practices persist even when competing standard committees are offering their specifications free of charge. As of 2006, a document (even those offered freely by VESA) can cost hundreds of dollars, and the only way to get some of the older standards (assuming they are still on sale) is through those already having the printed versions. VESA had been criticized for having a track record of developing unsuccessful digital interface standards. {Link without Title} EXTERNAL LINKS |
