Hi folks,
I've been on this list since returning from WE05 in Sydney last October,
hoping that the same feeling of sharing and openness would prevail. It does
to a certain extent, but the few glaring exceptions have tended to put me
off posting to the list.
Some people write as if there were a club, a them and us, people who get it
and people who don't, and never the twain shall meet. I remember at WE05
Molly Holzschlag asking us what we called ourselves, and there were some
very diverse answers (my favourite was "the guy who does stuff"). Elsewhere
(on Flickr) I've seen her reminding us that lots of us are good at
different aspects of what we do and together we make a good team. I'd like
to think that this web standards community is a team, not a club where only
some of us are "truly" web professionals.
Cheers,
Helen
