For the record: I appreciate all the work that you've done in creating 
an HTML5 parser. Really.

But the availability of your work doesn't necessarily mean everybody can 
start using it right away. In many cases, corporate Java developers are 
stuck with whatever the current SDK gives them, and adding a dependency 
on an open-source project just is either impossible or at least very 
very hard.

(And yes, I'm talking from experience)
