And maybe that's the problem.

No-one doubts the dedication and talent of you, of all people, Ian. But I
think the point being made by others on the list is that if something takes
as long as this, shouldn't we be seriously looking at the process itself?
Even if we had three of you Ian, it would still be too slow :)

So for me, the real question is whether large, monolithic standards are the
way to meet the needs of a web that changes by the day.
