As a general rule, I'm in favor of that - or at least some way of forking the discussions and only requiring individuals to be involved in what they're interested/expert in. -----Original Message----- From: Marcos Caceres [mailto:marcosscaceres@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, June 19, 2008 4:06 PM To: Sunava Dutta Cc: Arthur Barstow; ext Doug Schepers; Chris Wilson; Ian Hickson; Marc Silbey; public-webapps; Eric Lawrence; David Ross; Mark Shlimovich (SWI); Doug Stamper; Zhenbin Xu; Michael Champion Subject: Re: XHR2 Feedback As Tracker Issues (was: [NOT] Microsoft's feedback on XHR2) On Fri, Jun 20, 2008 at 7:30 AM, Sunava Dutta <sunavad@windows.microsoft.com> wrote: > > Here's how I feel we would benefit. At MSFT we've got lots of experts across the company, however I cant really have them join the aliases as in many cases a vast majority of the discussions are not relevant to them and in many cases not even in their current commitments (for example let's say the original designers of IE's XHR who are currently working on a new project).
