Some say it's a great and rewarding way to learn German.

@fluepke If that doesn't make you an expert, what does? Have you tried?

Can't speak for the DID people because I dealt with another WG but I can tell you, they weren't exactly known to be very open either but I still got invited. Sometimes it's nice to be surprised. Not all people who work in such WGs are mindless sycophants which close themselves off towards critics, even if they work for a company or towards a goal with questionable ethics.

@fluepke @LiberalArtist @eloquence We can totally criticise the W3C in many, many areas but let's clarify a few important things:

- A ton of WG/CG mailing lists are open: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/ It is also possible to participate there.
- Many WG/CGs use public GH repos and one can make "substantial contributions" by becoming an Invited Expert. This system is far from perfect, obviously, but it does exist.
- Many of the W3C CGs are open and everyone can join.

With that out of the way, can you reference the WG or CG you're talking about which denied public access to the mailing list and severely restricted individual contributions?

Edit: You're probably referring to https://www.w3.org/2019/did-wg Their mailing list is publicly available here: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-did-wg/ Spec repo is here: https://github.com/w3c/did-core and creating issues is allowed (this is how I got invited to another group btw).

@puniko @threemaapp @KBreker Ich bezweifle, dass deine Antwort verstanden werden wird. 😂 Ohne das Schweizerdeutsche regelmässig gehört zu haben, keine Chance das zu decrypten.
