In Keep calm and carry on (with HTML5), Andy Clarke reminds me why I have a huge man-crush on him. I especially enjoyed this paragraph:
In the CSS Working Group (which I still follow even though I’m no longer an Invited Expert), Microsoft’s hitherto lack of progressiveness hints at their concern of adversely affecting corporate enterprise, their core business. Apple’s enthusiasm for Webkit-proposed additions to CSS3 betrays their own agenda for Flashless mobile browsing. Opera doesn’t want people who use its browser on hardware built by Nokia or Nintendo to miss out on a web decked out in rounded corners or shadows — hence their alpha Presto engine provides these and more. And so it goes on.
I never thought of it that way. If there’s one person who can tell things how they are, unbiased, it’s Andy.
