Great new alt attribute permathread on public-html that defies all logic: Flickr and alt. I apologies for the mess, but probably deserve some credit for the entertainment value. (This is coming back to haunt me.)
ECMAScript Harmony looks nice. Hopefully a more sane versioning strategy will be part of it as well. (E.g., getting the same strategy as HTML and CSS have.)
Spain was great! Went for the fourth time to Maraña to party, eat, and walk mountains and such. To celebrate this fact I registered maraña.org, my first IDN. Here is a photo:

(Using the revolutionary braces proposal from HTML5; sue me.)
Going to Cambridge slightly later today. Hopefully meeting up with jgraham and Philip` for dinner. Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday I will attend the CSS WG meeting.

Also, by this point it is clear that I will attend the W3C Technical Plenary in October (ticket and hotel arranged) and will attempt to climb the Kilimanjaro in the first two weeks of November (ticket not yet arranged; just waiting for some more miles to arrive so I can fly business class on the way home).

Having partially followed the Flickr and alt thread myself, I have to say I completely agree with you. Fortunately I have no doubt that sanity will prevail in the end.

Mt Kilimanjaro sounds awesome! If you need a climbing buddy, and you are going straight after TPAC, count me in!:D

You knew what the photo was. So that alt="" text is non-conforming. :-)
