W3C - Web Payments Working Group

[Todd Thorner]

Could someone less ignorant than I spill a few words regarding this W3C
initiative?  In what ways might it impact OFBiz's roadmap?

"It won't because OFBiz itself, with some help from third party
services, can do all those things"

"Implementers will be able to program OFBiz against its API"

"Project maintainers hope to integrate its functionality into a future
version of OFBiz"

"Not many of the project's maintainers have looked into it"

Is one of those close?  Is each of them sort of correct?  Here's a brief
article with an overview (contains a link to the group's official charter):

Thanks for any insights.
