Are you saying you have input from real actual flesh and blood developers of Jaws and such? Can you get them to participate in the HTML WG? The theory is important, but without input from the practice side, we aren't going to get anywhere. What Gregory just explained about Jaws 8 looks even more horrible than what I'd seen of it (Jaws 4). We need to know why Jaws is so horrible, or else we can't do much for it. -- Sander Tekelenburg The Web Repair Initiative: <http://webrepair.org/>
