The TAG is good > at identifying, and potentially kicking off, some work items. Kicking off work items turns into a layering violation almost immediately. On the other hand, getting work done reasonably well trumps theoretical purity (although we will have to pay for that later).

Compared to your mostly invisible pages on github, and even W3C's twitter reach, search engines actually have quite a large footprint. Barely managing to appear in them in english suggests some work that should be done. And having a pile of outdated stuff as your most public face might match what developers do, but isn't helpful when they are trying to share some of their scarce spare time... > we should probably also make an iOS app, just to be safe:) I'd be fine with that. Right after you learn to communicate in say 3 or 4 of the world's top ten languages. Despite some crossover, most major languages have essentially monolingual cultures even in developer circles... cheers -- Charles McCathie Nevile - Consultant (web standards) CTO Office, Yandex chaals@yandex-team.ru Find more at http://yandex.com
