Subject: Re: CfP W3C/WAP Web Device Independent Authoring workshop
I recently raised the possibility of authoring content for both
environments with certain WAP members in another TV forum and it was met
with a strongly negative reaction. The TV Interest Group meeting you
reference below is from 2 years ago. So, I guess I am curious if there is
a studio represented on this list that thinks there is value in this. It
made sense to me, but it there was such a strong negative reaction, I have
since dropped it.
Can a studio speak up on the desire/need?
