Re: www-forms debates

Hi Ivan,

Anyone can debate any technical issue on www-forms, and the working group 
takes it pretty seriously.
That does not mean we will agree with everything a person asks for, and we 
sometimes have to take a pass on great ideas for the current release, but 
we do take it seriously.

As for actual voting, you have to become a member of the W3C and have your 
AC rep nominate you to join the Forms WG.  Of coruse, this is not 
something one does just to get a vote, as it is a commitment to remain a 
member in good standing (i.e. one that can vote).  Joining includes the 
obligation to attend weekly telecons, travel to 4 face to face meetings, 
and both take on and complete action items in a timely fashion.
