RE: Digital Textbook Hardware and Software Capabilities and Feature Sets

Web Philosophy Community Group,
Henry Story,
 
Thank you for the hyperlink to the video and paper.

"It may be your opinion, but I don't think this list will be a good place for finding people who will be able to help you on technical standards issues. This list is more about philosophical issues as they impact the web."

I indicated, in another letter, and here again (http://www.w3.org/QA/2012/11/w3c_and_digital_publishing.html), that the W3C could become involved in digital books and textbooks, digital publishing, HTML-based documents; web browsers could be digital textbook reading software. Are you indicating that the scope of digital publishing is beyond the scope of topics to be discussed here?
 
"Why would anyone be interested in your opinion?"

Your question, indicated, did not meet or exceed my expectations of interpersonal etiquette in this forum.

"Who is the 'we' you are speaking for? Why do you think you'll find such a 'we' on a philosophy mailing list?"
 
We, in the previous letter, was implicitly the forum, productive forum participants, societal contributors, who are interested in the topics.



Kind regards,
 
Adam Sobieski
