Hm, this is in stark contrast to the feedback I have received (from
literally hundreds of people).

It is obviously of critical importance to me that HTML5 addresses the
needs of the wide Web community. Clearly, we have received different
feedback from different parts of this community. I would like to receive
feedback from the the people to which you have been talking. Would it be
possible for you to point me in the right direction to obtain this feedback?
Are there mailing lists where it would be appropriate to request
constructive feedback from these people?

Do you have any suggestions for how we could obtain a representative
sample of people to determine once and for all what fraction of experts in
the Web standards community are in favour of the current direction of
HTML5 and what fraction are opposed to it?
