The new W3C HTML Working Group, who will create the next version of HTML, will be initially chaired by Microsoft’s Chris Wilson. Although my impression is that Chris is a good person and has good intentions, I agree with Roger that it’s hard not to be a little leary of Microsoft being in this position of power — what with their attitude towards web standards over the years. Still, I remain cautiously hopefully that Chris Wilson will use this position to influence Microsoft to do the right thing, rather than for Microsoft to influence the W3C.
