Something to keep in mind is that the working group decision on editors was for two editors[1]. Ian was supposed to be an editor. Dan Hyatt was supposed to be an editor. In April 2007 regarding his nomination as co-editor, Dave wrote [2] to Dan on public-html: > I can assure you that my perspective will not be identical to Ian's.

To that Dave replied [3]: > I will have more time to participate now that Leopard has shipped. Dave has posted 46 times to public-html [4]. The last one was five months ago on March 10.
