On account of him being a Famous Writer and all, he's nailed the point I've been trying to make since attending the WAI launch in '97. Working for government force will just add another reason to the pile encouraging companies and people to take their sites offshore (encryption restriction, taxes, etc.), and besides which it pisses people off to tell them what to do (instead of showing them how it can help them). The conservative and libertarian sites that are railing against section 508 (if I've got the number right) would be taking exactly the opposite approach if instead the WAI were presented as an industry consortium voluntarily embracing a diverse Internet community without government involvement. >My Browser Is Faster Than Yours (-: -Chris -- Christopher R.
