Having the response from the HTML Working Group prior to the AC meeting
is going to be useful indeed, and discussion on public-html is perfectly
appropriate. site-policy isn't a public list so it can't be used for
useful discussion. W3C, as a SDO, isn't used to the concept of allowing
a fork. On the other hand, the HTML community, which nowadays contains a
significant chunk of open source individuals, is perfectly used to that
concept. I see the current discussion as a good preparation for the one
we'll have at the upcoming AC meeting.
