I don't know. It seems useful to know who is responsible for a given document though. The reason for making the distinction was mainly that "Editor" does not really describe the relation that person has to the document well. I don't really care that much either, just curious what other people thought. > I'm wondering because a lot of other standards setting bodies don't list > Editors or authors. Interesting. W3C/IETF/WHATWG all do. But I guess they've all been inspired by each other. -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/
