well, i don't know berners-lee personally and i am not a technician, but it seems that he is the man who is keeping all that together and who made web standarts what they are today, probably not in the technical sense but definitely in the political sense. and he definitely has a vision. all the major browser makers are now struggling to comply to w3c standarts (as well as influencing the standarts to fit their platforms). no need for 'great technical accomplishments' to make things happen.
