Hi Everyone,
There's still lots going on "behind the scenes", but I agree it has
been very very quiet in here and it'd be great if this list were
still a forum. Besides, once we've done the white paper were going to
need help with case studies and surveys and all manner of other
things that we've got planned.
MACCAWS is *not* dead, just... um... quiet. As Steph said, we put up
news on the maccaws.org front page every few weeks/days/when needed
to let people know what we've been up to. And we're very very close
to publishing the white paper.
Having said that I'd like it to be more of a forum, I'll get on to
discussing Web standards news and stuff...
What do people think about http://www.webstandardsawards.com ? Do you
think it'll help convince people other than web developers/designers
to go with standards? Does it help "make the case" at all or is it
preaching to the converted?
