I actually found another type of Web logger that people from W3C seem to
like (at least Dan Connolly, Daniel Veillard and Gerald): Advogato[1].

Apparently, in this one, you seem to upload your comments to the server,
which that you can potentially lose them if the owner of Advogato
suddenly decides to shut the service down. Plus I wouldn't be
comfortable in using a tool which generates invalid HTML[2]. :-)

It doesn't seem very hard to me to do something like that actually. The
data could be stored in XML, a small script would add entries in XML
format and an XSL stylesheet would generate the output.
