  8. # [00:50] <dauwhe> There's a discussion of drop caps on the very first archived www-style email, from 1995.
  9. # [00:50] <dauwhe> And they're already bikeshedding the name.

  17. # [01:49] <TabAtkins> Haha, nice.
  18. # [01:59] <dauwhe> Someone should do a "best of www-style" compilation. Searching for "egregious" in the archive brings up some contenders.

  30. # [03:25] <liam> someone came up to me at a conference once and asked worriedly if W3C had redefined the point to be a 96th of an inch or whether we were changing the inch
  31. # [03:26] <dauwhe> resolved: pi equals 3
  32. # [03:26] <liam> :)
