Thank you all -- especially Nick Greeves. A lot has been clarified. Mostly
the dire warning doesn't really mean what it appears to say. I'm assured
that certainly nothing is going to happen until at least 2016 -- plenty of
websites are in the same position we are in. The experimenting with

Would it be opportune and sufficient an intervention by someone like me,
who have not so great programming skills? I could stress the importance of

these two questions:
1) If browser versions appeared tomorrow (because this group is suggesting
that browser designers experiment with the proposed change *now*) that

As a scientist or educator, but not a programmer, how disruptive would it
be for you if the next Firefox or Chrome or Safari or whatever browser
follows through on the suggestion of this group to experiment with the
proposed
Ok I will take into account of your suggestion.
