Standards in the warez scene are defined by groups of people who have been involved in its activities for several years and have established connections to large groups.[1][2] These people form a committee, which creates drafts for approval of the large groups.[ruleset 1][3] Outside the warez scene, often referred to as p2p, there are no global rules similar to the scene, although some groups and individuals could have their own internal guidelines they follow.
In warez distribution, all releases must follow these predefined standards to become accepted material.[4] The standards committee usually cycles several drafts and finally decides which is best suited for the purpose, and then releases the draft for approval. Once the draft has been e-signed by several bigger groups, it becomes ratified and accepted as the current standard. There are separate standards for each category of releases. All groups are expected to know and follow the standards.[5]

Recently it has been suggested that Razor 1911 turned down an opportunity to become a part of a standards body to define and dictate standards for the ISO scene at large. We would like to take a brief moment now and debunk this myth.
