It seems to me this question was answered when the W3C started working on HTML again in 2007. It is great of course to rehash old debates over and over until we can argue each other sides successfully and whatnot, but it would also be nice if there was a sign of progress. (That the web is a mess was shared at http://www.w3.org/2006/03/TP-minutes.html#item01 for instance. Even people trying to do XHTML cannot get it right. This really ought to be common knowledge by now.) -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/
