+"It's tenuous certainly, but it's driven by a real market, with fits and spurts, and moments of genius and ingenuity, rather than by artificial forces that trend towards
+stagnation and denovation -- because enterprises, like the government, are incented to avoid change and evolution."
+
+That's largely the way it works, there's a feedback both ways.
+
+When browsers work differently its natural to get frustrated, it's a largeer ballgame "the scale of everything has gone up."
+
+
+In other words, web development ought to be pushing the boundaries of what's available rather than stopping at the limits of what's in the W3C specs.
+
+
+But there are problems with simply setting browser manufacturers loose and one need look no further than the W3C's CSS working group to see them. Microsoft has reportedly been stalling regarding new web fonts and yet at the same time Microsoft's Silverlight essentially allows the use of any TrueType Font, which has led some, including Russell, to see this as Microsoft's bid to keep Silverlight ahead of standard HTML when it comes to font rendering.

+No one wants a return to the painful 1996 web with sites that only work in one browser, a problem largely solved by the creation of W3C an the specs it developed. After all they argue, we have all these great standards-based tools, why not stop and smell the HTML 4 for a while?

+And Bennett isn't worried about Microsoft. Citing some examples of how IE7 was in fact largely a result of Microsoft being forced to play catchup with Firefox, Opera and Safari, Bennett concludes that "Microsoft really isn't relevant to the future of web standards."
+
+What's more, he argues, "any compelling new development that comes from the rest of the industry will be just another form of fire and motion, and Microsoft will have no choice but to keep pace, regardless of whether they participated in the process."

+There's millions of people spending eight hours a day working on it, the html working group has a lot more layers to the onion than it used to.

+
+I like this quote but I don't know what to do with it:
+
+HTML working group is open, CSS working group happens behind closed doors, but there's increased transparency. "I think it has been a real problem, but more of it is happening in the open now and I think thats a good thing.
