     [29] http://www.w3.org/Mobile/planet

   <r007a> the mobile web aggregates relevant blog posts from other
   people's blogs - these people subscribe to have their blog included
   by applying to Dom HM - should we do the same ?

   <r007a> addison has no blog

   <r007a> michael doesn't blog regularly

   <r007a> addison: would we open this to the world

   <r007a> ri: open to the world for viewing, i think

   <r007a> we'd need to vet potential subscribers like mobile web's dom
   does

   <r007a> ap: i wouldn't be opposed to it, but we need to do some
   research

   <scribe> ACTION: Richard, send note to winter list, etc., and
   research starting an internationalization blog aggregator [recorded
   in [30]http://www.w3.org/2007/06/12-core-minutes.html#action09]

feedback forms

   Richard receiving a huge number of feedback forms

   causing him some problems, since there is a lot of spam/low quality
   messages - main difficulty is in scanning the lists for the
   spam/malicious mails

   Richard proposes change to format

   digg-like vote instead of 1-5

   moderation of text

   richard: what's useful is commentary

   <Michael> See the end of
   [31]http://blogs.sun.com/Argentina_ambassador/entry/sun_lanza_oficia
   lmente_el_sun for the simple math hurdle for providing feedback

     [32] http://www.w3.org/2006/09/geofeedback/displayfeedback.php

   richard: no voting feedback at all - just comments

   addison: consider scheduling regular reviews of comments on a
   per-article basis?

   richard: require email address and allow public publication

   running in the range of 20-30 typed comments / month out of well
   over 250 responses

   for next time: consider changing to comments only feedback and
   instituting regular of feedback

   need a volunteer to help with that

   Michael would like to help

   need to consider our process here

status review

Last call review items & process

   felix's items (later)

What is encoding, and why should I care?
