...Html5 and CSS is a mark for openness. I remember the incredible lengths we had to go through to make a web page work with all platforms and their individual attempts to EEE.
That success came because of strong efforts from places like Mozilla Foundation and web dev communities like A List Apart to make NOT being spec compliant embarrassing for Microsoft.
The lesson here, to my mind, for what's needed for success is a coherent public message.

One of the related projects to the web standards effort that I personally think was integral to the larger eventual success was CSS Zen Garden. A public and engaging show case for what is possible with the standard. A flexible framework that anybody could pick up and publish their flavour of beauty and coolness for us to wow at and learn from.

I don't know what the equivalent Activity Pub garden might be, but we should look for it.
