OpenDoc came straight from the Advanced Technology Group. It was definitely engineering led.



The initial OpenDoc architecture came out of ATG, but by mid-1992 it had been folded into the AIM Alliance, a shared Apple, IBM and Motorola group. IBM contributed SOM, which was architecturally very heavy/baroque. By 1996 OpenDoc was folded into the OMG umbrella and then it really became bogged down in design by multi-corporate consensus.
