However, I'll already be happy if we can kill the XForms zombie.
Apparently they've had a group in plh's Domain for years, and never
produced anything of consequence, and now that he's finally managed to
kick them out, they want to return through this back door. If the
handful of people who still care about it want to continue wasting
each other's time, they can always start a Community Group, or move to
another standards development organization.
I agree with everything Ms2ger said. I don't think that working on
non-web technologies is helpful to the W3C's stated mission, and I think
we should encourage those who wish to develop such standards to do so at
other venues, leaving the W3C free to give much-needed focus to
web-related work.
