Something to keep in mind is that the working group decision on editors was for TWO editors[1]. Ian was supposed to be an editor. Dave Hyatt was supposed to be an editor. In April 2007 regarding his nomination as co-editor, Dave wrote [2] to Dan on public-html: > I can assure you that my perspective will not be identical to Ian's. Back in November 2007 Gregory asked: > and i am concerned that dave hyatt is a semi-mythical being... when > will he speak for himself on list, let alone participate in HTML WG > teleconferences? To that Dave replied [3]: > I will have more time to participate now that Leopard has shipped. Dave has posted 46 times to public-html [4]. The last one was five and a half months ago on March 10. Two active editors with different perspectives would have been beneficial providing some balance.
