Hi, Paul- First, thanks a million for doing this! Second, I think a blog post on blog.webplatform.org would be a great idea. Scott or Julee, if you can work with Paul on that (or find the right person to do so), it would be sweet. (I really wish I could go myself... :( Maybe I'll try to find a good excuse to do so... like working with PPK on the compatibility tables project...)
