Yes, something to keep in mind is that the working group decision on
editors was for two editors[2] not one.  Ian was supposed to be an
editor. Dave Hyatt was supposed to be an editor.

In April 2007 regarding his nomination as co-editor, Dave wrote [3] to
Dan on public-html:

Back in November 2007 Gregory asked:

To that Dave replied  [4]:

Dave has posted 46 times to public-html [5]. The last one was over
five months ago on March 10.
