Whatever their lofty statements of intent and inclusion, standards
are political processes that necessarily includes vendors and
leadership with power of veto.  Whatever concessions they may
make to the 'community' you can be assured it won't be at their
disadvantage.  Standards work when you have a usership that
has little choice but to comply.  That isn't the case with Forth
where standards are largely optional and you can get by with
a small set of words and reasonable level of skill.

That would include Forth's inventor who faced with the choice of
staying and being voted down, chose to leave Forth-94 and has
been severely critical ever since.  He may have more cause to
be disappointed considering Forth has been taken in the opposite
direction to what he intended.
