   You call that a standard?

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

Bob Glushko notices that all is not well in the world 
when the term 'standard' is corrupted.  I don't 
see any solutions here, and I note that this is the 
price to be paid by many in our community who chose 
to gut ISO and really did not understand what they 
were doing.  Their tears now do not move me.

Jon, Tim, Jean, Eve, James, Michael, put this one on 
your tombstones:

"As the twig is bent, so grows the tree."

And those wild and wacky browser folks are waking up 
to the fact that the web is just data plumbing and 
that load balancing a system means using something 
other than thin-clients.  So those who 'voted with 
their feet' have found they now have holes in their  
soles.

An HTML browser IS a cul de sac.  Dagnabbit.
