I?m certainly not opposed to a more productive venue for hashing out some of these issues, but I still worry that we?re backtracking. We?ve already covered a lot of the same ground on this list as a large group of us did months ago ( https://etherpad.mozilla.org/responsive-assets is one of many venues in which this took place ). While I?m in no way railing against having a bunch of new eyes on this problem and new potential solutions, I?m afraid of going back and rehashing the same ideas for the sake of people just joining the conversation. By the time we reach a conclusion?possibly the same conclusion?and present it to the list again, who?s to say we wouldn?t find ourselves repeating the process all over again?

Basically, I?d want to ensure that any discussion within the group takes place in a very public and easy-to-digest way, so we have an easy reference for people joining the conversation late in the game. I?d also love to see a representative from each of the big browsers and a couple of people close to the standards process directly involved, so we can stay as focused and productive as possible. I?m happy to reach out to people, to those ends.

Any way you slice it, you?re right that this list isn?t the place for continued discussion of this sort.  Viktor, if you?re willing to set up such a group, that?s probably a more appropriate venue?at least for the time being.
