There are several "co-ordination groups" whose mandate is doing just this. This work is not fun. There are frequent complaints about the volume of work and the cost of the ensuing compromises. There is not, however, a grand unified vision of the future which provides an overarching framework that the working groups take as context. Thank goodness. Do you know anyone who can predict the big-picture future of the Web? I don't. The grand visions of the future come unexpected out of coders' basements and off power-lunch cocktail napkins. All W3C can do is try to shake out a set of best common practices so we can make the [expletive deleted] interoperate and provide some local entropy resistance. -Tiim
