The WAP specification is a truly open standard that enables public content, corporate intranet and operator-specific solutions to reach wireless subscribers today. The WAP specification leverages and extends existing Internet standards, enabling application developers to tailor their content to the special needs of wireless users. Wherever possible, the WAP specification optimizes and extends existing Internet standards. The WAP Forum has taken technology elements from TCP/IP, HTTP and XML, optimized them for the wireless environment, and is now submitting these optimizations to the W3C standards process as input for the next generations of (XHTML) and HTTP (HTTP-NG).
