@mattn9 yeah, that's true with some groups, particularly HTML5 ;)
@Nicolethecoder I was just celebrating at #tpac2011 how many women are finally involved. One step forward, ten steps back @w3c @w3c

@mattn9 oh yeah, let's not open that can of worms when I'm feeling a bit burned. ;)
@acupofcode @jillianrushing I've been involved with the #w3c, as an invited expert, for nearly a decade. Women's time is NOW :)

@jillianrushing and I've been at #w3C longer than both. Sexism AND Agism? Or it may just be over-familiarity.
After years of public advocacy re #w3c, is it not ironic that at their first dev conference, one of their earliest working devs is left out?

And yes, that last post was definitely from the heart. I feel hurt and left out that no one thought to include me in the #w3conf event.

Looks like #w3conf is kicking ass today. Wish I was there. Still wondering how it turned out I'm not. Definitely give the stream a follow!
@brennanMKE Without history and only technique, one cannot truly become adaptive and insightful. But most people want to know HOW not WHY.

@brennanMKE Unfortunately, I have found a wall of criticism and disinterest whenever history is brought into topical workshops and books.

@brennanMKE If anything catches your eye, let me know. Maybe we can do something with it. We haz community!

@brennanMKE Take a look at some of the existing timelines out there. I often have need for visual references like that in workshops, books.
@mlhdesigner The ratchet set might help. The fried ravioli couldn't hurt. Nom!

@brennanMKE The Adobe folks in the #W3C #CSS Working Group are doing great work for both CSS and specs at large. I feel positive about them.
@mlhdesigner You made me try that last year. It worked. I need a new level of Mattgyver repairs.

@brennanMKE But insofar as a timeline, that's public information, no one needs to "be on board" if you wanted to develop such a resource.
