HMmmm

It wasn't me who was looking at using W3C tools. It was Judy Brewer I
believe. But in a call yesterday I heard her say (I think) that the W3C
tools could NOT be used. Bruce you might want to call Judy and get the
right answer - but I thought that is what I heard. I hadn't seen this
email at the time so I didn't note the comment carefully so I could be
wrong. But I remember being disappointed.

(PS I had also wanted to use their survey tool for other standards work - or
get a copy of it to post other places but was unable. That is a VERY useful
piece of software as well). Bruce, have you ever seen anything else like
that?
