Actually, looking at most W3C standards, I get exactly the opposite impression -- that they are created by academics that have never written any serious software, or even tried to consider the implications of writing an efficient implementation. Did you realize that even the most advanced browsers, with an enormous manpower behind them, do implement only a little fraction of the standards? And that's not because they are too lazy; that's because many of these standards are just absurdly complex. -antrik-
