From an almost infinate amount of time lurking in #html I have learned serveral things, the most important thing for this node however is this; The W3C dose not mean
shit.
For some reason
people assume the W3C decides
everything about web related
tech. This is not
true, they merly SUGGEST ideas. No one HAS to
follow the ideas.
On an un-related note, for some reason people assume a browser must comply with the W3C standards to be a real browser, this is also false. There is not a single
browser on the market that complys with all W3C standards, not even
Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The W3C is a fine group of people, but not one to be taken as seriously as they are.
