In order to join, his W3C AC representative would have had to respond to the call for participation, agree to the royalty-free patent policy, and nominate Ian as a member. That has never happened. The sXBL specification was produced by a task force consisting of members from the CSS and SVG Working Groups. The SVG Working Group owns the specification as far as publishing is concerned. It's not yet clear if this situation can continue. Ian was added to the SVG Working Group email list when we started producing sXBL (Feb 2004, I think). He gets the email but isn't a member of the group, and thus is not required to obey the WG participation rules.
