I love their focus on getting to the essential bits of media metadata, but I'm still very uncertain what the fate of their efforts will be or what they could do to avoid becoming yet another niche W3C standard that is only ever half-implemented. Their crosswalks are very nice, though (and reveal the somewhat ridiculous proliferation of media metadata standards) Thanks — I’ve been following the MAWG for awhile now.

Very heavy focus on “crosswalks” (and rightfully so)…
