If Opera has people who have time to edit, there are _far_ more important things for us to have edited than Web Storage. DOM Core, for instance. Anyway, my point was that even if I did have time to edit the spec, it would be a bad idea to accelerate the process. Reviewing a spec takes time, finding problems takes time, and if we rush it we'll just screw it up. Web Storage in particular has _already_ resulted in one of the biggest screwups of the last few years in the Web standards space (for which I take full responsibility) because of rushing implementations. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
