Personal proposal that a lot of people I’ve spoken to agree with. It is a real roadmap, unless someone stops me :)
Replying to @rdeltour
I’m not sure what you mean by «endorsed». If I’m doing it and doing so while paid by W3C then in a way it’s endorsed.
Replying to @rdeltour
But it doesn’t mean that you get a big rubber stamp with the logo on it and all.
Replying to @rdeltour
Yes there is, because for all things HTML there’s an attached group: the HTML WG.
Replying to @rdeltour
Who actually does the work is an open question, but likely a mix of the team contact, editors, etc.
Replying to @rdeltour
This is the only source for the HTML WG. It becomes the way the HTML WG works.
Replying to @rdeltour
In that sense, yes. This is in active discussion.
Replying to @geeksean
I don’t think it actually does defeat standardisation if we do it right. See berjon.com/w3c-open-licen…

«Non-standard appcache extension»… WHO *DOES* THAT?
Replying to @jaffathecake
You’re telling me there are people who looked at appcache and thought «Oooh, let’s add more stuff in there!»
Replying to @jaffathecake
I’m not complaining, I just find the notion of someone wanting to extend appcache hilarious.
@bloveluck You should’ve done it this way: xkcd.com/1403/
Replying to @jaffathecake
Okay, okay, I’ll buy it. But you’ve turned what was a gentle, amused prod into a serious discussion. Not so sensible :)

Nah, it probably wasn’t that funny to boot :)

they're not secret, I even started writing them up in the "after5" thing, but they're longer than 140 and I'm on vacation.

Also, more based on doing than on talking. Discussions haven't been between members, just people who think standards suck.

And who are tired of Web developers being screwed over almost systematically.

I know it's a long shot, but I'm tired of standards being about bickering in a tiny, incestuous group in which being a dick is OK.

There is truth there, but it can be useful to have a policy you can point to to tell jerks why they're being kicked.

There’s great RICG experience. It builds the right community, and gives browsers the… @sgalineau @tobie @DavidBruant @domenic

…chance to start acting as if they really care for devs. 2. If the latter bit fails, … @sgalineau @tobie @DavidBruant @domenic

… you have the right community in place to either finance or (even) fork. @sgalineau @tobie @DavidBruant @domenic

Lastly, it helps if browsers get more JS-based, as both Chromium and Gecko are able to be @sgalineau @tobie @DavidBruant @domenic

I know, but a browser that cares about its users and devs more would stand a chance. @yoavweiss @sgalineau @DavidBruant @domenic

I know, hence going in steps. Also, I think most browsers want to do roughly right. @yoavweiss @sgalineau @DavidBruant @domenic
