Nice to see you again Molly, and welcome to Web Stock 08
Is this your first trip to Wellington?
It’s my very first trip to New Zealand, yes, and it’s just fabulous. I’m enjoying it.
The conference’s been going well?
I’m really enjoying it, but one of the things that’s really special about it, I think,
is that it’s just got a great sense of passion and this unity of who we are and
what we are in the web and workers of the web. And I’m liking that passion a lot.
I’m also enjoying the fact that there are speakers here from all over the world.
Many of whom have been colleagues of mine for many years
and the fact that there are a lot of local people.
And so it’s bringing a lot of different People together
So it feels very much like a “web stock”, you know, like get together very diverse individuals
with one greater common goal, which is to make a very useful web and
continue innovation for the web.
In your presentation you draw distinction between standards and best practices - what did you mean by this?
What I mean by that, when we talk about web standards I am challenging the language of that.
I’m suggesting that what we are doing really aren’t true standards like a manufacturing standard
