walrus, attempts to organize webmasters have always failed in the past. Perhaps it could happen now but that has yet to be proved.
There are advantages in allying with an existing organization.
The problem with trying to 'do it ourselves' is the same problem that, for the moment, delays the creation of a position document.
It's the problem of "Who Bell's The Cat?".
A position document is only as valuable as the number of people who can find it, read it, remember it, and take it seriously.
A position document hosted by unkown webmasters won't be found, read, remembered, and taken seriously. It would probably be excellent practice, tho, and we need all the practice we can get.
But, if you can figure out ways to get around that problem, who knows what might happen.
