Fwd: WHATWG patches staged for merge week 42

Hi all,

As you may know, the HTML5 spec is being updated weekly with patches from the WHATWG spec they are categorised B1/B2/B3 (see forwarded below)  the B1 patches are editorial or viewed as in controversial in nature.

I have been reviewing the patches as they are posted to the HTML WG list.

If I have found any that are problematic I have filed a bug or responded on list. 

I suggest other interested people also take the time to review as what I consider unproblematic patches may be viewed differently by others.

Regards

SteveF
