They only forgot about one thing : if "dictator" has unfortunately a negative aspect, "enlightened dictator" has a positive one. HTML 5 needed someone like you to do the dirty job, and I am very glad you did it because you did it so well. What people think of other people does not count in the end ; the only thing that really matters is having a successor to HTML 4. Thanks Ian. </Daniel>
