Well, they say that they want both open source and open standards.
Then listing software that does not comply to both seems pointless.

If you remember, my original point was that this site blurs the distinction
between these two fundamentally different concepts. You contradicted me, and
now you are providing a very nice example of my point. The goal of using
open source software and the goal of using open standards are very
different. Effectively they only overlap by co-incidence. Now you're saying
that, of course, a site that promotes both wouldn't be interested in
anything but the intersection of the two!

In any case, I dont agree. Most software listed is open source, but does not
comply to many standards at all.
An of course, most open source software uses open standards. Why would the
not?

So does "most open source software": 
	a) not comply to many standards at all
	or 
	b) use open standards?
