I'm not going to make one of these statements, because I don't have sufficient information. What I can say is that I think that it's totally not clear that changes to the current spec are impossible. Furthermore, I believe that any kind of change that aligns the text/html and the application/xml syntax more closely would be a win. > ... > Thus, at this point, I'm not seeing a real dispute. For there to be a real dispute, I think one of the types of replies I mentioned above would have to happen. Is anyone willing to do that? If not, I will tend to assume that we do in fact have consensus. > ... There may be rough consensus, but it certainly doesn't include me. Also, I assume it doesn't include Microsoft, otherwise they wouldn't have made a proposal for a change. BR, JulianReceived on Monday, 5 October 2009 11:44:27 GMT
