This document will be moving to FPWD. We should review it. It looks like a rough first draft. Here are some issues I note right off, mostly of style and scope, without reference to accuracy of the intended content. - It immplies that validation and parsing are the same;. It's crucial in a document mennt to provide authoring guidelines to make clear the difference between well-formed XML, XML valid according to some type of schema, and HTML5-compliant tagsoup parsing. Otherwise authors have no principles to fall back on to undertstand what's going wrong when things fail. - The abstract claims that it summarizes guidelines for authors, and lists the various things which it does not define, yet it later has Normative and non-Normative sections. If it has Normative definitions, it needs to state the scope for which it is the normative definition, and provide a conformance section. Likely this document is in fact a set of guidelines that have no conformance, no scope of authoritative definition, and hence will have no normative sections. - MAY is highted as rfc2119 in section 3, yet section 3 is non-normative. This pattern is repeated throughout.
