O.K Let me re-iterate there is probaly nothing wrong with the HTML offered to PG, yet it is not excepted by PG. Also, not all HTML mark up can be used in ebooks. Somethings simply do not work others poorly. PG has a master format. The big question is how to make it better. I am not interrested in creating a new mark up, but setting up guides and specification so that those that do offer HTML can and one can be certain it will be excepted. That is why I have started ANA. Maybe someone will come with a better mark up. Maybe someone will come up with better tools, but if you do not know the input you can create good output. Furthermore, sure, you HTML can be used to make good looking for a particular display/device. But, it fails when one uses the abilities of the devices to change font, sizes, margins, justification, etc. Here again here is where ANA is to help. regards Keith.

I have given positive feedback, you just don't like it, because you are working on a different agenda.
My positive suggestion is that there is very little wrong in practice with most of the HTML which is submitted and therefor the sensible thing to do would simply be to fix that little part which is not working, rather than throwing all the volunteer's work away and starting fresh with some new master language that someone at PG invents, if only they could agree on anything. My positive suggestion is simply give people who care a way to fix the half dozen "formattos" that are screwing up the HTML code, just the same as WW'ers currently fix "scannos" when we find them. This isn't making "snowflakes" any more than fixing "scannos" is creating "snowflakes."
The problem really isn't HTML, EPUB, or Kindles. Its process and politics.
