Re: [whatwg/url] Provide a succinct grammar for valid URL strings (#479)

@alwinb: I believe your work is splendid, but please stop trying to villainize the WHATWG. I feel like your points would be taken much more carefully if you worded them less aggressively.

As I said in another thread, I feel like people should work together to solve the issues that they deem relevant. There might be disagreement in what issues are deemed relevant (and there is room to converse about that), but you seem to just want to impose what you believe.

Just because people don’t acknowledge the issues you are trying to solve as legitimate, it doesn’t mean they aren’t taking you seriously, it just means they disagree with you. If anything, your defensive (to avoid saying “hostile”) behavior when talking about your work is what is actually making people take you less seriously.

The approaches taken by the WHATWG spec and your spec are vastly different. I believe there is value to both approaches. And at any rate, if they are indeed equivalent, it doesn’t feel compelling for people to wish to change either way.

I really hope you can stop acting that way, so that people (including you) can actually cooperate towards something together.
