MMC cards, who created the standard behind them (if any)

Hello from the Eighth Doctor
One of my staff, with my blessing, is investigating the possiblty of using CF, or 
MMC cards for file storage on an embedded system project that he's designing.

I know, (vaguely), who invented the first CF card, and who started the standard 
behind them. We've got a supplier selected for both the cards, and the adapter. But 
the MMC card is a tricky beast. We'd like to know more about these things, before 
we continue, and probably make mistakes.

I'm at a loss as to what makes you think that knowing who started the
design of MMC cards might improve your chances of working with them in
any significant way.  MMC is governed by an industry standard, which
you should implement correctly, and that's that.  See www.mmca.org for
more.
