That's just daft. It gives an inordinate advantage to people who've been visible to the AC for a long time (such as myself) and doesn't make it possible for someone less known to the AC but with strong proposals to run on their ideas about Web architecture. > > Perhaps the TAG would be composed of more useful participants if its members were self-selected/elected i.e. anyone can be a member of the TAG? I don't know, but it's an interesting question. I notice that Marcos opened http://www.w3.org/community/groups/proposed/#opentag right at the same time. Not that it's surprising, people involved in the everyday creation of specifications realise there is a need for documented architecture, but currently their needs and questions are not being catered to. -- Robin Berjon - http://berjon.com/ - @robinberjon
