And pretty much everyone who has commented on it
has agreed that the author could have done a wee bit
more research, to actually understand what is meant
by
1) standards
2) standards compliance
3) w3c
4) WSP
before writing what is essentially an ignorant article.

Either that, or refused the cheque from
$LargeNonStandardsCompliantBrowserMakerWhoPrefersInnovationToCompliance

Cheers
Martin
