It takes a long time but is rooted in the card shark vs holy scroller debates held here and elsewhere some (now many) years ago. The frame guys took a real beating only to see <div> show up. <div> proved that neither side had much of a claim. An addressable chunk is an addressable chunk. As Tei said, mediocrity isn't always bad. That's why I think of it as averaging. Consensus won't always produce a superior solution. It produces a solution people are willing to use and if like me, you see technical evolution as a breeding process, not a competition for who is the smartest person in the room, use is the best measure of success, therefore, 'practice'. Among musicians there is a saying: the difference between a rock musician and a jazz musician is a rock musician plays three chords for thousands of people and a jazz musician plays a thousand chords for three people. Mediocrity has a place and the difference is how many and which albums will you keep when the significant other packs it in and you have to split the community property. len Quoting Andrew Welch <andrew.j.welch@g...>: > :) You will need to explain that one for me... > > On 3 February 2012 00:07, Len Bullard <cbullard@h...> wrote: >> <div> >> >> len >> >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Andrew Welch [mailto:andrew.j.welch@g...] >> >>> but the results are that mediocrities become "best practices". >> >> Example please. >> >> > > > > -- > Andrew Welch > http://andrewjwelch.com > > _______________________________________________________________________ > > XML-DEV is a publicly archived, unmoderated list hosted by OASIS > to support XML implementation and development.
