On W3C.org » Standards » Browsers and Authoring Tools -> link: http://www.w3.org/standards/agents/Overview.html "We should be able to publish regardless of the software we use [...] We should be able to access the web from any kind of hardware that can connect to the Internet" I don't know if this is a policy but it is on the W3's website. -- Emmanuel Revah http://manurevah.com
