"Until now, for example, Linux was frozen out of the Intelligent I/O (I2O) standards body, which is currently designing the next generation of high-speed data throughput by off-loading I/O from the main processor onto an auxiliary chip. The standards rules state that committee members cannot release the source code.

But Linux is built on the philosophy of open-source code, which precluded it from membership in that committee. Intel stepped up to the plate and vigorously worked to have the rules of participation changed so the technology would be open, according to a source familiar with the committee"
