I had been reading about "internet of things" (IoT) connectivity standards groups (links below) when I came across Bridget Moorman's post Connectivity Standards Adoption Over Time.
I made an off-the-cuff comment because of the contrast I saw between the way other industries approach standards vs. the medical device industry. Bridget and Tim kindly responded with informative feedback.
Standards are hard, so I guess it's not easy for anyone.
