A quick scan of best practices in ICT standardisation : what ETSI could learn from other standards bodies

Standardisation institutions have different procedures and regulations, and thereby join up, more or less, to the variable demand. This study aims to gain an insight in the differences and similarities between the used methods at four important standardisation bodies, and how these methods are judged upon by (potential) participants. This insight contributes to the development of a good government policy for standardisation in this changing environment.
