Right! Apple actively working against OpenCL and LLVM, Nokia actively
working against GStreamer, Google actively working against VP8...

You mean, like Sony Imageworks who released and maintain Alembic,
OpenColorIO, and Open Shading Language?
Or like Disney who released Ptex and Partio.
Or like Pixar and OpenSubdiv?
Dude, what in the blazes are you talking about?
