And If the [Ll]eadership of this organization screws up badly
enough, the Internet Community *WILL* route around the damage. It's
happened before. That's how W3C came to be.

Erk!
I haven't been involved with W3C since 2000, but I WAS involved in W3C
during the late 1990s. It's worth pointing out that the "alternate
routing" mechanism _did_ include a king - at that time, Tim was doing
final endorsement for all "recommendations", and it looks like
Director Endorsement is still the case (see
http://www.w3.org/2004/02/Process-20040205/tr.html#q73).
We need to be careful what we wish for, sometimes... but thinking
about John's note, and this factoid, is motivating me to finally read
the drafts!
