The commentary from Tim Bray (“Stop WSDM”), Grek Pavlik (“WSDM Standardization: Just Say No (For Now)”), Mark Little (“Why WSDM isn’t ready for primetime (yet)”), me, and I guess others made Mark Potts reply (“Response to Stop WSDM”). First, my apologies to Mark for the lack of support for formatted comments on my blog. He…
