It's important to consistently question whether what we're doing is effective. That said, I hope you don't take offense to the fact that your pessimistic view isn't going to deter us from trying. :) The world isn't changed by pessimists (or by optimists for that matter). It's changed by people that have a firm grasp of the facts and human nature. I've personally seen a number of W3C initiatives upgrade and re-invent entire industries. There have been failures, but those are to be expected when you're seeking to effect positive world change. -- manu -- Manu Sporny (skype: msporny, twitter: manusporny, G+: +Manu Sporny) Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. blog: The Marathonic Dawn of Web Payments http://manu.sporny.org/2014/dawn-of-web-payments/
