CEDA Study Group Findings
Need ability to move fast in early stages
Need open inclusive process for best ideas
Standards require ecosystem to have impact
IP has emerged as important issue
Standards development requires funding
Not always aware of best IEEE procedures
IEEE allows conflicting competing standards
