Could be.  I am interested in Dave's position. 
I've yet to hear it.   We 
renamed VRML in the new X3D, but we also 
added quite a bit and stayed within the organization 
chosen to host the process.  It was hard and 
it did provoke a lot of consternation, but 
at the end, we aren't Lady Macbeth.

not fair of you to call Dave Winer a pirate 
for building over the RSS that Netscape pioneered.
