BTW out of curiosity I googled and SEO firm someone I know used and the
firm wasn't in the top 10 ranking it claimed it could put its customers
in. Did see a good article on it though
*What's an SEO? Does Google recommend working with companies that offer

Hi Keith,
I suspect that Michael may be inferring that SEO is not a fit and
proper subject for the WSG list.
I'm happy either way - it isn't strictly web standards per se, but
neither is IE8 Beta's underperformance, and I am glad to learn about
both without subscribing to other lists. Moderaptor call I guess :)
Cheers, Andrew
