The assumption that “the panel just isn’t valid with Dave Winer on the sidelines even if he’s a huge pain in the ass in a group setting” seems to be a gate to progress. Much of the discussion outside of Dave is reasonable and helpful. I think his disagreeable nature combined with a (presumed) veto power in this case is contributing significantly to the spec’s failing to improve. And it needs to improve - as a full-time RSS developer I’m frustrated by the lack of clarity in the spec that’s making this enterprise much harder than it needs to be. I think Dave’s history isn’t as important as RSS’ progress so, history aside, I’d prefer they move forward without him if that’s what it takes to have a productive meeting of minds. (Or, I could just deliver everything via Atom. :P)

Looks like Dave Winer has gotten two of the RSS Board Advisory members to resign: Dave Sifry and Greg Reinacker.

The subscriber count of The RSS Blog is actually over 3000. I didn’t really consider it worthy of pointing out on the RSSboard Website. I run a few blogs, one of which is Destroy All Malware, which ranked #20 on Feedster’s top 500, which is why you hear me spewing about spam a lot.

A couple other names I’d like to see on the RSS Board are Blake Rhodes (IceRocket) and Scott Johnson (x-Feedster).
