UKNM: CommerceNet?

[Clay Shirky]

Has anyone else here heard of this plan for an "Ecommerce

Accreditation Scheme"? I got this mail on Friday:


> > I'm getting in touch with regards to the upcoming CommerceNet Internet 

> > Marketing Project.

> >

> > The objective of the Project is to formalise Ecommerce Best

> > Practice guidelines and to develop an Ecommerce Accreditation

> > Scheme. The associated Pilot will consist of expanding the

> > newly-developed Scheme into the wider market.

> > [...]

> > CommerceNet Consortium			

> > http://www.commercenet.org.uk  (UK & Ireland)

> > http://www.commerce.net  (Global)


Anybody know anything about this "scheme"? Or CommerceNet? And is this

as much of a bald-faced grab to badger merchants into paying in for a

worthless kite mark as it seems?
