Is the "Open Group" really 'open' if it holds copyrights?
I didn't place the notice, but it does read like an advertisement ... most of the intro is straight from their web page. There's a lot more interesting things to say about the Open Group if someone has a sense of history and a nice paper and/or email archive to reference - David Gerard 10:58, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
Could somebody elaborate if the Open Group is a profit-oriented entity? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.49.250.236 (talk) 16:46, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
The two paragraphs for the history section don't appear to fit together, because they are describing (apparently) unrelated events. TEDickey (talk) 09:50, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
Statement
"The Open Group is most famous as the certifying body for the UNIX trademark,[2] and its publication of the Single UNIX Specification technical standard,[3]"
looks non consistent with article about Single_Unix_Specification
"The Single UNIX Specification (SUS) is the collective name of a family of standards for computer operating systems to qualify for the name "Unix". The SUS is developed and maintained by the Austin Group, based on earlier work by the IEEE and The Open Group."
Also [Unix Wars] statement:
In 1996, X/Open and the new OSF merged to form the Open Group. COSE work such as the Single UNIX Specification, the current standard for branded Unix, is now the responsibility of the Open Group. However, the damage to Unix's market reputation had been done.
is quite different (or my English is very poor ;/ )
