I would implore the W3C to officially denounce vapor terms such as "DHTML", "Ajax", and "Web 2.0" inside its new WGs. It helps no one when vaguely defined marketing buzzwords are used to describe very specific technologies and methods, much less in a standards-producing environment like the W3C.
I doubt the W3C can do much to legislate language, but I also doubt that people in the WG (when formed) will need reminding of that. The terms may be used in elevator pitches, but I'd expect that would be about it.
