Many of these are defacto standards, evolved by the industry/other 
groups with little or no gov participation. ecma is a group of 
propreitary companies agreeing upon a few "standards".  Any "standards" 
set by such groups cannot be accepted automatically as "standard".  Each 
has to be taken case by case, item by item, and after careful 
evaluation, adopt it for public use, if they do pass any common test 
that may be devised for this purpose.
