Atom discussion minutes

The minutes from the Atom/W3C discussion in New York have been posted online. Unfortunately the default formatting is pretty difficult to follow. I found it a lot easier to figure out who was saying what after applying the following CSS (using the test styles bookmarklet):


abbr {
  display: block;
  margin-top: 1em;
  margin-bottom: 0.5em;
  font-weight: bold;
}
abbr:after {
  content: " - " attr(title);
}

  1. That's a good idea. I struggled my way through it earlier when I saw Dave Winer linking to it. You need to post these things sooner, young man!

  2. Is there any mailing list on the W3C that posts this kind of announcements?

  3. sn: not to my knowledge. They have an RSS feed (linked from their front page) but it only carrys major announcements. They also have dozens of mailing lists which are mostly available for anyone to subscribe to - but following all of these is pretty much a full time occupation. I just tend to keep an ear out around the blogs I read for interesting W3C related news.

  4. You can use the Mozilla Edit CSS extension for the same purpose as well. EditCSS

  5. There is a "Dynamically add CSS" function in Opera's web developer toolbar too which does much the same thing: http://nontroppo.org/wiki/WebDevToolbar
