This is always Mozilla&#x27;s excuse. It&#x27;s not as if Google hasn&#x27;t published their source code or their documentation:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developer.chrome.com&#x2F;native-client&#x2F;c-api" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developer.chrome.com&#x2F;native-client&#x2F;c-api</a><p>It&#x27;s not as if Google isn&#x27;t willing to work with other browser vendors to translate this into a formal spec.<p>It&#x27;s not as if you even need to have a formal spec for the plugin API! The previous standard, &quot;NPAPI&quot;, is the <i></i>Netscape<i></i> Plugin API, which was informally specified for Netscape, and then adopted by other browser vendors.<p>How is that any different than PPAPI?
