I meant the question quite seriously.

When trying to specify anything, it's important to be clear about who is the 
target for adopting it and how motivated they will be and how feasible adoption 
will be within a useful timeframe.

If the specification is only intended for Yahoo and Google and there are good 
signs they will adopt it, then fine.

If the goal is broader adoption, then Yahoo and Google can actually be 
misleading examples, since they are not representative of the wider mailing 
list 
management software or operations community.
