Unfortunately it seems we did not take any lessons from what David wrote as people are still arguing e.g. Microdata versus RDFa rather than accepting there's no single plan within the W3C. I'm personally fine with having many experiments, but I do believe quite strongly that if it's not shipped in a browser, it will lose out long term over something that is because the browser has far greater network effects than any other piece of software. Based on that I believe that if a new piece of technology did not involve browser developers (and to be clear, I mean people writing the code here), it has a high chance of failing. -- http://annevankesteren.nl/
