Many countries are so proud of their existing quality
standards, that they will not accept an internationally
described standard. Recognizing this and wanting an
international agreement, ISO 9000 did allow nations to
continue with existing standards. If this was only a
way to get countries to participate, then evolve into
something else, it is beyond my knowledge base. Your
statement "ISO 9000 is not a specification or quality
level." does fit my definition.
