    Interesting, this post just caught my attention because I needed to look at the HDMI white paper today and found it rather strange it was only available from one source which wanted you to register.
    Standards should be public information. If you define a standard, then keeping it secret or obstructing access to it should not be permitted.
    Some Australian Standards are like this. There is always some troll demanding a toll to cross a bridge he doesn't own.

    This problem will solve itself. Instead of the documents being hosted on an unofficial public site, it will be hosted by torrents everywhere.
    Yes I am an agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial.

    If it were sooooo secret I doubt that there would be the uptake of HDMI that it has.
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...
