Re: W3C Invitation

My perception has been that Tim and Sam have gone to extraordinary 
lengths to assure an open process here; they took pains to inform the 
Atom Community of their intent re: the IETF beforehand, and gave timely 
and complete updates on the progress that was made.

So, I'd like to push this point a bit further, because I'm getting 
conflicting messages, and it's important to keep the air clear. To my 
knowledge, there has been no contact with the W3C about standardising 
Atom before Eric's message to the IESG; is this in fact true?
