 I am mentioning this because IMO it is important that W3C Community Groups are clearly and explicitly identified as not formal, not endorsed, not standards track.

Otherwise, you get overlay vendors continuing to try to cash in on the good name of W3C for their Overlay Community Group (renamed to ‘Accessibility at the Edge’ because apparently they are stuck in 1992).

 @113f6899 Maybe they're trying to copy CDN terminology because they like to do everything at the edge as well 
 @3bc89a16 They cite CDNs in the explainer, so yeah. They genuinely are trying to shoe-horn their broken model into a non-analogous one.
