I see it as yet another reason why this discussion, and this standards work, should remain within the W3C. I appreciate that it is complex and thorny question, but the fact that we can discuss it, document it, and analyze it as a global community in an open, free (and patent & royalty free) manner illustrates the strengths and benefits of keeping this work effort inside of the W3C, as opposed to chasing it out of the W3C (to be continued in a closed industry-only space - for it *will* continue unless a better solution can be proposed). Thanks again Karl. JF (Related: Mark Watson wrote: > > Could I ask if your group has also considered the likely consequences of > the W3C NOT getting involved in this work?)
