This Community Group has been abused by some members of the HTML working group
to divert discussions that they do not agree with away from the HTML working
group. This includes the Chairs, and they have not been rained in by the W3C,
and in fact the W3C has stated that the views expressed here will not be
considered until a later stage in the process and the W3C has refused to define
how they will be considered.
We need to be moving people interesting in contributing to the standards into
voting positions in the relevant working groups and this is not served by the
existence of this group so I propose closing down this community group and
directing the HTML working group to accommodate the members within the working
groups as voting invited experts.
If necessary I will challenge for the position of Chair of this group and seek
a mandate to closing it down.
The Director of the W3C has challenged the public to take back the web and we
should all move forward on this now and take back control of the working groups.
cheers
Fred
