For the record:
WAI does not have a formal 'membership', however all of the signatories
have involved themselves in various WAI activities in the past.
"WAI welcomes...
* participation from around the world
* volunteers to review, implement, and promote guidelines
* dedicated participants in working groups"
[source: http://www.w3.org/WAI/ ]
As well, the fact that the signatories (volunteers all) are not all PFWG
members should in no way diminish the fact that a collection of
accessibility advocates, who have contributed to the W3C now and in the
past, collectively feel/felt that there is a real problem with process,
*AND* rather than just complain took constructive action to try and remedy
that problem.
Is there a problem with that?
