ANN: Outsider's Guide to the W3C (revised)

["Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@simonstl.com>]

Thanks in large part to the helpful comments I've received from this
list, I've revised "An Outsider's Guide to the W3C":

http://simonstl.com/articles/civilw3c.htm

New sections include acknowledgment of some activities that are
particularly open to public participation, as well as coverage of the
TAG, the Advisory Board, and ongoing patent discussions.  There are
updates throughout the document, however, reflecting three years of
change.

I've labeled this version "2.0a", since there are undoubtedly bits to
fix and additional material that might be appropriate.  Further comments
are welcome both on and off the list.

Also, I've licensed this document under an Attribution-ShareAlike 1.0
license from Creative Commons:

I hope it may prove useful for developers writing other guides to the
various specification processes.
