Guys,
To put a final end to this topic 

You Aussies will never have us Kiwis. 
We would rather bring our country down to get 
away from yours.

Its embarrasing when people mix us up when
they mention down under.
And besides, theres a clear line between us Kiwis
and you aussies. We are a much superior people.
:D

Re: [WSG] [OT] NZ vs Aust

2004-08-25 Thread Scott Barnes
hehehehe

Damn you Gary!

I might do a bit of a talk i guess on CSS + DHTML? if anyones got an
interest. I've just spent the last few days writing a bunch of CFMX controls
(*cough* ripped off Flex  XUL *cough*) that basically utilise XHTML Strict
DTD (heh), DHTML + CSS. Its got some nice smarts in place, but to keep
ontopic with this list, I did put in some CSS framework approaches (ie
breaking up design,layout,formating,custom) for each control.

Not sure, anyone interested in that type of discussion.

Is this organization about standards or is it a club for

Re: [WSG] [OT] NZ vs Aust

2004-08-25 Thread Ben Bishop
THIS THREAD HAS BEEN CLOSED. NO MORE POSTS. And no replies to Lee's question.

Regardless of how witty a retort, how droll a barb, or how clever your
carefully crafted rejoinder, if it has nothing to do with Web
Standards DO NOT POST IT TO WSG.

This isn't what the group is about. There are plenty of other forums
for these sort of discussions. If you are in doubt as to the
guidelines, read them:
http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm

If you would like to respond to a legitimate on-topic issue raised in
a thread that has been closed due to borderline/dubious/blatant
off-topic comments, open a new thread and clearly address *only* the
on-topic issue.

The best response to an off-topic post, or flame bait for that matter,
is to ignore it. Please use this post as practice.


To the members annoyed by these posts, thank you for your patience.

Hey Mike

Going this far off topic on this list is a bannable offence - your
only option now, if you wish to stay on this list, is to set up a WSG
meeting in NZ.

(Only kidding about the banning, but please give the meeting idea some thought.)

Just because Kiwis aren't Australians, doesn't mean we don't try and claim
