Discussing W3C issues on the XML-dev list seems to produce some remarkable levels of firepower. Apparently these issues matter very much to many people, all of whom appear to have strong opinions. For those of us who aren't W3C members, this forum is one of the few places where we can participate in open discussion of these issues, and I value that openness very much, though it does seem to have an effect on participants' blood pressure. I'd thought this was a reasoned discussion - okay, fine, a debate at times - that might be worth presenting to the W3C as relevant material from a public forum. Hence my cross-posting of three messages to www-html (and, since it isn't clear who to send outside comments to, a few other addresses listed in the XHTML PR.) Apparently, I crossed some line betwen the rough-and-tumble public world of xml-dev and the world of the W3C inadvertently, and I apologize for that mistake and the anger it has caused. Hopefully we can scale back the rhetoric some and discuss this sanely. Perhaps it would have been smarter to have the entire discussion on www-html@w..., though it is difficult to stop discussions once they've started in one place and restart them elsewhere.
