You asked for guidance, seeming interested in what these strange 
seemingly exclusionary people might have in common. When presented with 
a summary created by a diverse community deciding what its center might 
be, you dismiss it as a mere list of technologies.

Might I suggest you spend more time at Web-centered conferences, on 
mailing lists, and such?  They're not hard to find.
