Obviously no…:-)

I think, in our areas, we need

- more (minor or major) traditional ('trade') publishers
- academic publishers (Elsevier, the XX University Press, …)
- the 'background' institutions that produce the e materials (Jouve, Aptara, etc)
- we have most of the reading system providers by name, but not necessarily active in our group

Anything else?

This could refer to framework makers, new services providers, innovative think tank.  In other words, just ask yourself what are the innovative actors who are not in your group and that should be there. Note that this is not about recruiting new members, but making sure the W3C still represents the web at large…
