Open Protocols

Create the mechanism by which your competitors can build on your product more easily than they can build any other way. Pace innovation by extending this mechanism to everyone's best interest.

# Work

Accumulate implementation resources by developing draft specifications and prototype implementations.

Subset available drafts to be released as only enough to relieve market pressure for innovation. Follow with product improvements.

# Flow

Host meetups and working groups so as to fuel continued internal innovation while maintaining public gratitude.

Release validation suites with coverage where you excel and latitude where you are weak.

Should you loose this position of leadership be prepared to abandon Islands of Attention and Leapfrog in the remainder.
