Indeed.  But just waiting “whatever next evolution”, is not the good
attitude I believe.  Lisp and Emacs are great grounds for
experimentation and improvement I believe too.  What interest me is
exiting as much as possible from the web, while trying to stay somewhat
compatible with the good things, but even more with older and better
things (RFC822, nntp, dsssl, semiology studies, true logical
programming, etc.).

I recall the time I was full of energy and constantly changing whatever
was producing or containing html to make it more semantic, one day I
should find again the energy to do that for multiple org backends, and,
related to non-semantical org-backends, try to unify that to if not some
stylesheet system, customizations used by elisp web browsers such as w3
or eww.
