MCP connects a model to its own tools; A2A connects independent agents to each other. A plain-language comparison of the two standards — layers, primitives, transports — and why a B2B agent usually needs both.
Ringi is Japan's document-based consensus approval: a proposal circulates for stamped approval before the decision is announced. What that means for a foreign vendor's timeline, who is actually reading your materials, and what to prepare.
