My point is that this isn't the forum for digs at Microsoft, Democrats, Republicans, IBM, Oracle, Google, Socialists, etc., etc.  There are other places to vent frustrations.  It distracts from the topic at hand.

BTW, this is just a request.  To Len's point: yea, it's a part of business.  I "do the dance" as part of my job as a project manager.  A necessary evil.  It'd just be a bit of a relief not to have to skip over cheap shots here as well.

I agree with Mark Allman. I understand your sentiment, Len. However, shouldn’t there be a better forum for those developing the standards to discuss this particular behind-the-scenes detail of what goes on to develop the standards? I do not see how a discussion of this aspect of the standard process helps the community at large that is interested only in learning about how to understand and use the technology.

 

Passing it along in this forum seems to be perpetuating the ‘tar ball’ so to speak.

Politics are part of business and standards have become a weapon of choice.   Delete and endure.

Could we please keep the political jabs off this list?  I subscribed to read about XML topics.

Thanks.
