    The chairs of both groups, as well as yourself, and Jeff, are fully
    aware
    of this already.

So, a working group member who plays a pivotal role does not agree
to follow the W3C Process, as well as follow the HTML Decision Policy of
the HTML Working Group.

I believe that what Ian is saying and doing now directly contradicts what he agreed to with co-chairs when we met with him face to face in November of 2010 in Santa Clara. That being said...

Why should any of us?

Steve, I think that you are asking the wrong question. I believe that the important thing that matters is what the final spec states.

    I have acted under the assumption that  participation in working
    groups is dependent on my agreeing to, and attempting in good faith,
    to abide by W3C process, it appears that I and others have been mislead.
