Just so that everybody is clear on what I have been encouraging[1], I will repeat it: If this means more specifications each purporting to be HTML 5 with a survival of the fittest determining which one advances, I'm OK with that. Better would be more documents with clear divisions of labor. Best would be cooperation. It is fully understandable that at this point in time you don't know what form the output of the work on canvas will take. I would suggest that this also means that you can't rule out producing something that Ian will find acceptable. My suggestion is that we don't spend cycles at this time exploring hypothetical situations. Instead focus on producing a compelling proposal. Once that's done, things might simply fall into place. If not and there are road blocks, I will work with you to resolve the issue. > regards > stevef - Sam Ruby [1] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/2009Jun/0128.html
