Thank you Art.

You carried out this group and community over so many years.

Your first email to the AC was entitled "Just say NO?" as a response to 
a proposal from W3C. It will take a while for me to realize you won't be 
standing and come to the microphone to challenge us as you used to do 
for so many years.

Art steps down - thank you for everything

Hi folks,

as you may have noticed, Art has resigned as a co-chair of the Web  
Platform group. He began chairing the Web Application Formats group about  
a decade ago, became the leading co-chair when it merged with Web APIs to  
become the Web Apps working group, and was instrumental in making the  
transition from Web Apps to the Web Platform Group. (He also chaired  
various other W3C groups in that time).


I've been very privileged to work with Art on the webapps group for so  
many years - as many of you know, without him it would have been a much  
poorer group, and run much less smoothly. He did a great deal of work for  
the group throughout his time as co-chair, efficiently, reliably, and  
quietly.


Now we are three co-chairs, we will work between us to fill Art's shoes.  
It won't be easy.


Thanks Art for everything you've done for the group for so long.

Good luck, and I hope to see you around.

Hi Art,

Yes, thank you very much for chairing the WG for so long. This group
has under your chairing been one of the W3C WGs that has moved the web
forward the most.

Thank you so much for your ever calm leadership! It's been great to

Art - thanks for all the contributions to the web standards community over the 
years.

It has been my good fortune to work with you for a number of years. First as a 
colleague, learning the ropes from the best, and after moving on to new places, 
stay connected.

I started to reflect the past after reading Chaals' mail, and it struck me it 
was indeed ~10 years ago WAF WG [1] and Web API WG [2] were the new hotness. 
That was the time when Ajax/XHR was becoming a thing. Heck, even the Web API 
WG's logo had that shiny Ajax-age reflection on it, and a beta badge -- good 
times!

Cheers,

-Anssi

Thanks Art. You were there from the first day I showed up at W3C with a
light but steady hand on the tiller. Thank you for all your help.

We won't be able to fill Art's shoes but we'll try to keep the group
moving along with a light touch while still closing issues and making
progress.
