Beat your favorite vendor(s) about the head and shoulders. If a company has
put some effort into developing a product already, then this will help
convince them to market it. If they haven't started, this will help convince
them they'd better.

There are several companies that will remain nameless that have projects
underway. They are most likely waiting for the "draft proposed standard" to
become approved as a "proposed standard", at which time it becomes essentially
unchangable.
