RE: [dita] Stages of the OASIS process are confusing to many

Title: RE: [dita] Stages of the OASIS process are confusing to many Ooh, that ring diagram is an excellent model for W3C recommendations. It looks to me like a throbber, which makes it all the more appropriate fro W3C (and also makes me unreasonably biased in its favour) since apparently that was an idea popularized, if not actually invented, by NCSA Mosaic. At least, so says Wikipedia, and how could that possibly be wrong? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throbber But I'm not sure whether it would be right to copy the same idea for an OASIS standard. I'm happy enough with the thermometer metaphor, but probably would be equally happy with other clever ideas. mag
