w3c nonsense

I'm not sure who thought this up, but I'm sure its to do with money.
If such patents go ahead I will actively remove w3c in all my open 
source notes and use your organization as a case study in the Advanced 
Diploma in Information Technology on "open standards on the web"
I will encourage all my colleagues in other States moving into Open 
Source Training across Australia to do likewise.

You are demonstrating a clear failure to lead in this field and if the 
proposal is successful I shall be one of the first supporters of a new 
replacement body.

Regards

Stephen
