Re: [sdw] Present the Maps for HTML / MapML concept to browser developers for discussion and co-development / eventual co-standardization

Hi Juliana,

Yes, any help is appreciated.  I am particularly interested in promoting why browsers should consider implementing Web maps.  Also, anyone who is reading this and who is going to be at TPAC could come and support the concept in  person.  I think that would help.

It seems like everybody who thinks its a good idea thinks that someone else should do it / should have done it before! On the other hand, it seems like people who are adept at Web technologies already shrug and say "Why bother?". 

My thinking is that Web standards that make Web mapping accessible to everyone, right from the beginners all the way through the professionals are needed. I also think that one of the motivations for making Web maps accessible to everyone (through standards) is so that humanity can collectively address the challenges facing us through the environment etc.

I have never spoken with browser developers before, but I gather it must be a tough crowd to please.
