You can't make a community-based ISA, it's not possible unless you have a community-based fab. He who makes the chips makes the rules.

Err … RISC-V is an ISA without a fab?
I mean, a shuttle run is pretty cheap these days. If you have silicon, and customers, scaling past a shuttle run that worked is pretty low additional cost.
It's not really a community though is it?
