           Summary: HTML5 vs HTML 5
           Product: HTML WG
           Version: unspecified

The title of the specification is "HTML5", but in the content, like in 1.6, it
is referred to as "HTML 5".
Then in 1.6 it says that this is the version 5.0 of HTML and XHTML.

There are uses like XHTML1, XHTML5, XHTML 5, HTML4 and so on. Maybe an internal
guideline, how to call the specs would be nice, since there is only HTML 4.0
and HTML 4.01 and not really HTML4. You might even give that guideline in the
history section.

If you want to call the spec families HTML4 and HTML5, that sounds fine. 
But if you call this version 5.0 in section 1.6, I think, you have to be
consistent with the earlier specs and call it HTML 5.0 in the title too.
