I love this question. The decision to create the Web3 Foundation and not the Polkadot Foundation was very intentional. But first, let me clarify a couple background things:
There is no official @polkadotnetwork "team". W3F is currently paying @ParityTech to develop the 1st implementation in Rust. However, we have a RFP for other implementations and we encourage anyone to apply for a grant here:
github.com/w3f/Web3-colla…
github.com/w3f/Web3-colla…
We believe that in order to see a fully realized decentralized web, and to that end, a viable @polkadotnetwork, a number of protocols need to be further developed. We have outlined some of those protocols here: github.com/w3f/Web3-wiki/…

One major argument for NOT attempting to formalize blockchain/Web3 governance: it gives corporations a system they can capture. - @VladZamfir on the difference between Web2 and Web3 governance and how to prevent capture in Web3 at the #Web3summit
Up next, @harryhalpin on the standardization failure of the web: the very technology that was designed to protect Web2 from centralization (via identity), OAuth, was captured by Facebook via Facebook Connect.
RSS is an example of bad, unusable standards - since people were religiously devoted to boring, crappy standards like XML - leading to the failure of open social media and content in Web2.
