ISO charges for copies of standards. You want to meet the requirements for ISO9000 certification? Just pay thousands of dollars, and it's yours. Of course, it's not really yours. These back alley crooks have you contract with a private "authorized" firm to take you through the steps. When you're all done, you get a notebook with forms in it to show your customers. This notebook is a legal document. Right? Well, why not fill out the forms yourself, and hold yourself accountable for what's in it? The result is the same. The "authorized" firm has a disclaimer, that the notebook is only as good as the last moment the firm was on your premises. Nice scam, eh? You want to meet the requirements for XML? Just pay thousands of dollars, and it's yours. Can't wait to see the disclaimer for this trick. That is not a standards body. That is a parasite.
